FIRST TRUST LARGE CAP CORE ALPHADEX FUND ETF downgraded from Buy Candidate to Sell Candidate after Monday trading session
(Updated on Jul 13, 2026)
The FIRST TRUST LARGE CAP CORE ALPHADEX FUND ETF price fell by -0.434% on the last day (Monday, 13th Jul 2026) from $137.00 to $136.41. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.90% from a day low at $136.12 to a day high of $137.34. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -1.21% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 6 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 18 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $2.47 million.
The ETF lies in the lower part of a narrow and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $135.71 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 8.57% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $147.35 and $153.45 at the end of this 3-month period.
FEX Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The FIRST TRUST LARGE CAP CORE ALPHADEX FUND 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 $136.73 and $136.43. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, and so far it has fallen -2.48%. 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 rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the ETF should be followed more closely.

Trading Expectations (FEX) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 14th
For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 14th we expect FIRST TRUST LARGE CAP CORE ALPHADEX FUND to open at $136.62, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $135.51 and $137.30, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.79 (+/-1.32%) up or down from last closing price. If FIRST TRUST LARGE CAP CORE ALPHADEX FUND takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.32% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $136.66 (0.19%) than the support at $134.81 (1.17%), 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.
