Ishares Msci Japan Etf ETF Forecast

Sell candidate since Jul 16, 2026

The iShares MSCI Japan ETF price fell by -1.70% on the last day (Thursday, 16th Jul 2026) from $93.50 to $91.91. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.93% from a day low at $91.62 to a day high of $92.47. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -1.23% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day along with the ETF, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the ETF. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -1 million shares and in total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $303.61 million.

The ETF lies in the lower part of a weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $91.62 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 6.40% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $97.49 and $104.94 at the end of this 3-month period.

EWJ Signals & Forecast

There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The iShares MSCI Japan ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $93.23 and $93.18. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, June 22, 2026, and so far it has fallen -5.22%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). 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 iShares MSCI Japan ETF

iShares MSCI Japan finds support from accumulated volume at $90.95 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

Trading Expectations (EWJ) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 17th

For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 17th we expect iShares MSCI Japan ETF to open at $92.00, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $91.07 and $92.75, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.67 (+/-1.84%) up or down from last closing price. If iShares MSCI Japan ETF takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.84% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $92.06 (0.16%) than the support at $90.95 (1.04%), 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.

Is iShares MSCI Japan ETF ETF A Buy?

The iShares MSCI Japan ETF holds several negative signals and despite the positive trend, we believe iShares MSCI Japan will perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks.

Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this ETF since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Sell candidate.
