During the last week, the price has declined below the moving average in the center of the Bollinger Bands.

The signals are considered more reliable if these indicators confirm the recommendation of the Bollinger Bands.

During the last week, the price has crossed below the 50 Day Moving Average.

The moving average crossover signals work better when the stock develops a strong trend, but they are ineffective when the stock is in a trading range. Moving average crossover systems can be effective, but should be used in conjunction with trend patterns, momentum indicators, candlesticks and other aspects of technical analysis.
