(Updated on May 01, 2024)

FCA Signals & Forecast

The FIRST TRUST CHINA ALPHADEX FUND ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the ETF has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $19.34 and $19.34. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, March 18, 2024, and so far it has fallen -2.49%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume fell during the last trading day while the price increased. This causes a divergence and may be considered as an early warning, but it may not be. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for FIRST TRUST CHINA ALPHADEX FUND ETF

Trading Expectations (FCA) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 2nd

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 2nd we expect FIRST TRUST CHINA ALPHADEX FUND to open at $19.56, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $19.29 and $19.83, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.266 (+/-1.36%) up or down from last closing price. If FIRST TRUST CHINA ALPHADEX FUND takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.72% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $19.59 (0.15%) than the support at $19.33 (1.18%), 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.

FIRST TRUST CHINA ALPHADEX FUND holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development.
