Plexus Corp. 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)

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.

Plexus Corp. stock upgraded from Sell Candidate to Buy Candidate after Thursday trading session.
(Updated on Apr 25, 2024)
The Plexus Corp. stock price gained 3.57% on the last trading day (Thursday, 25th Apr 2024), rising from $95.67 to $99.09. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.16% from a day low at $94.94 to a day high of $99.84. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 1.97% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 51 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 164 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $16.30 million.
The stockis at the upper part of a wide and horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at $99.83 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Plexus Corp. stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $90.52 and $99.75 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.

PLXS Signals & Forecast
The Plexus Corp. stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $95.09 and $94.40. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, March 18, 2024, and so far it has risen 9.35%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Trading Expectations (PLXS) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 26th
For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 26th we expect Plexus Corp. to open at $97.96, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $96.89 and $101.29, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.20 (+/-2.22%) up or down from last closing price. If Plexus Corp. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.45% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $99.89 (0.81%) than the support at $94.72 (4.41%), 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.
