First Trust Multi Cap Growth Alphadex Fund ETF Forecast

Hold candidate since Jul 30, 2026 Loss -0.06%

The FIRST TRUST MULTI CAP GROWTH ALPHADEX ETF price fell by -0.0629% on the last day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026) from $183.68 to $183.56. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 2.20% from a day low at $181.66 to a day high of $185.65. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days and is down by -0.64% for this period. 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 -2 thousand shares and in total, 10 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $1.83 million.

The ETF lies in the lower part of a wide and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $179.01 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 2.64% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $183.74 and $207.18 at the end of this 3-month period.

FAD Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, and so far it has risen 2.64%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The FIRST TRUST MULTI CAP GROWTH ALPHADEX ETF holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the ETF giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. On further gains, the ETF will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $189.72. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the short-term average at $183.41. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal. 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.
