20-Day SMA BIAS%

69
20-day Bias is a commonly used indicator in technical analysis. It is used to measure the gap between the stock price and its 20-day moving average to determine whether the stock price deviates from the normal state and whether there is an overbought or oversold phenomenon.
How to calculate the 20-day deviation value:
The calculation formula of the deviation rate is: ((closing price of the day - 20-day moving average price) / 20-day moving average price) * 100%.
Interpretation of 20-day deviation value:
Positive deviation rate:
Indicates that the stock price is higher than the 20-day moving average, which means that the stock price is high and may face correction pressure.
Negative deviation rate:
Indicates that the stock price is lower than the 20-day moving average, which means that the stock price is low and there may be a rebound opportunity.
Absolute value of the deviation rate:
The larger the absolute value, the higher the deviation of the stock price, and the higher the degree of overbought or oversold.
Apply the deviation rate to determine the buying and selling opportunities:
Positive deviation rate is too large:
When the positive deviation rate of the stock price from the 20-day moving average is too large, and the stock price is already at a high level, this may be a sell signal.
Negative deviation rate is too large:
When the negative deviation rate of the stock price from the 20-day moving average is too large, and the stock price is already at a low level, this may be a buy signal.
Stock price fluctuates around the moving average:
Stock price usually fluctuates around the moving average and adjusts after over-rising or over-falling.
Practical operation suggestions:
The standards of the market and individual stocks are different:
When the positive and negative deviation rate of the market and the quarterly line is greater than 5%, there is a greater chance of correction; large-cap stocks are between 5% and 10%; small and medium-sized stocks may be above 15% to 20%.
Combined with other indicators:
The deviation rate is only one of the technical analysis indicators. It is recommended to combine it with other indicators, such as KD indicators, RSI, etc., to make a comprehensive judgment and improve accuracy.
Reference to historical experience:
You can refer to the situation where the deviation rate of the stock was too large in the past to determine whether the current deviation rate is also too large.
Summary:
The 20-day deviation value is an indicator to determine whether the stock price is overbought or oversold, which can help investors determine the timing of buying and selling, but it needs to be combined with other indicators and historical data, and adjusted according to market conditions.
