Volta Finance Limited Stock Forecast
Explanation to Bollinger's Bands
Bollinger Bands was created by John Bollinger in the early 1980s, its purpose is to define price action relative to the assets highs and lows. This technical indicator is used to identify buy and sell signals and has proven very well in doing so.
Bollinger Bands consist of a set of three curves drawn in relation to securities prices. The middle band is a measure of the intermediate-term trend, usually a simple moving average, that serves as the base for the upper and lower bands. The interval between the upper and lower bands and the middle band is determined by volatility, typically the standard deviation of the same data that were used for the average. StockInvest.us uses Bollingers suggested 20 day average.
Middle Bollinger Band = 20-period simple moving average
Upper Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band + 2 * 20-period standard deviation
Lower Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band - 2 * 20-period standard deviation
BandWidth defines the current width of the band.
%b defines the current position within the band.
BandWidth = (Upper Bollinger Band - Lower Bollinger Band) / Middle Bollinger Band
%b = (Last - Lower Bollinger Band) / (Upper Bollinger Band - Lower Bollinger Band)
Live Samples:
Bottlenecks in bandwidth indicate an upcoming change. Break up through the moving average line or continuous movements above the moving average line indicate a break up, and vice versa.

During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.28% from a day low at £5.04 to a day high of £5.15. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -0.1% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock.

The stock lies in the middle of a falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled.

VTA.L Signals & Forecast
Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Volta Finance Limited stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at £5.09 and £5.06. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, May 16, 2024, and so far it has fallen -2.23%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume fell along with the price during the last trading day which is technical positive. One should, however, note that this stock may have low liquidity in periods, which increases the general risk. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Volta Finance Limited stock
Volta Finance Limited finds support from accumulated volume at £5.01 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
In general the stock tends to have very controlled movements and therefore the general risk is considered very low. However, be aware of low or falling volume and make sure to keep an eye on the stock During the last day, the stock moved £0.115 between high and low, or 2.28%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.17%
Our recommended stop-loss: We hold a negative evaluation for this stock. No stop-loss is set.
Trading Expectations (VTA.L) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 20th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 20th we expect Volta Finance Limited to open at £5.07, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between £4.96 and £5.11, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-£0.0712 (+/-1.41%) up or down from last closing price. If Volta Finance Limited takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.83% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at £5.04 (0.10%) than the support at £5.01 (0.50%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
Is Volta Finance Limited stock A Buy?
Volta Finance Limited holds several negative signals and is within a falling trend, so we believe it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We therefore hold a negative evaluation of this stock. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Sell candidate.
Current score: -3.461 Sell Candidate Downgraded
