Direxion Daily Aerospace & Defense Bull ETF price up more than 5.58% on Thursday
(Updated on Jul 02, 2026)
The Direxion Daily Aerospace & Defense Bull ETF price gained 5.58% on the last trading day (Thursday, 2nd Jul 2026), rising from $81.25 to $85.78. It has now gained 8 days in a row. It is not often that ETFS manage to gain so many days in a row, and falls for a day or two should be expected. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 5.83% from a day low at $82.97 to a day high of $87.80. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 6.27% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 89 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 265 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $22.71 million.
The ETF lies in the upper part of a very wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $86.69 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 12.68% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $72.02 and $97.68 at the end of this 3-month period.
DFEN Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Direxion Daily Aerospace & Defense Bull ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the ETF. 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 $78.18 and $71.31. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, and so far it has risen 32.81%. 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). Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Direxion Daily Aerospace & Defense Bull ETF
On the downside, the ETF finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $74.97 and $74.23. There is a natural risk involved when a ETF is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the ETF then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Direxion Daily Aerospace & Defense Bull finds support just below today's level at $74.97. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $74.23 and $65.44.
This ETF may move much during the day (volatility) and with a large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this ETF is considered to be "high risk". During the last day, the ETF moved $4.83 between high and low, or 5.83%. For the last week, the ETF has had daily average volatility of 4.62%.
Since the Direxion Daily Aerospace & Defense Bull has been rising for 8 days in a row, the risk over the next couple of days has increased. We don't expect a major reaction as the ETF is in very good shape technically, and therefore hold a positive evaluation despite the very short term risk.
Our recommended stop-loss: $82.67 (-3.62%) (This ETF has high daily movements and this gives high risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 15 days ago.)
