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)

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.

Weaker technical forecast for Amkor Technology as stock downgraded to Hold/Accumulate.
(Updated on Apr 15, 2024)

Buy or Hold candidate since Apr 05, 2024 Gain 1.56% PDF

The Amkor Technology stock price fell by -3.31% on the last day (Monday, 15th Apr 2024) from $32.37 to $31.30. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.46% from a day low at $31.17 to a day high of $32.87. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -1.6% 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. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -102 thousand shares and in total, 698 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $21.86 million.

The stock is at the lower part of a wide and horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $30.71 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Amkor Technology stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $30.97 and $36.52 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

AMKR Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, April 04, 2024, and so far it has risen 2.02%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. 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 Amkor Technology 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 $32.22 and $32.21. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Volume fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Amkor Technology stock

Amkor Technology finds support from accumulated volume at $31.25 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $1.70 between high and low, or 5.46%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 4.62%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $29.57 (-5.51%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 7 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (AMKR) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 16th

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 16th we expect Amkor Technology to open at $31.78, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $30.02 and $32.58, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.28 (+/-4.10%) up or down from last closing price. If Amkor Technology takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 8.20% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $31.25 (0.16%) than the resistance at $31.46 (0.51%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..

Is Amkor Technology stock A Buy?

Amkor Technology holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development. 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 Hold/Accumulate candidate.
