First Trust Dow Jones Global Select Dividend Index Fund ETF Forecast

Buy candidate since Jul 14, 2026 Gain 1.35%

The First Trust Dow Jones Global Select ETF price gained 0.267% on the last trading day (Friday, 17th Jul 2026), rising from $33.68 to $33.77. It has now gained 6 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 0.565% from a day low at $33.63 to a day high of $33.82. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 3.88% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -53 thousand shares and in total, 83 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $2.81 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The ETFis at the upper part of a horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at $33.84 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect First Trust Dow Jones Global Select ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $31.34 and $33.28 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and ETFS seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. ETFS turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners. Do note, that if the ETF price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

FGD Signals & Forecast

Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The First Trust Dow Jones Global Select 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 $33.27 and $33.15. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, July 01, 2026, and so far it has risen 5.60%. 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 fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The ETF should be watched closely. The ETF had a Golden Star Signal on Monday, July 13, 2026 in the long-term chart.

Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the ETF in question.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for First Trust Dow Jones Global Select ETF

First Trust Dow Jones Global Select finds support from accumulated volume at $33.33 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

In general the ETF tends to have very controlled movements and with good liquidity the risk is considered very low in this ETF. During the last day, the ETF moved $0.190 between high and low, or 0.565%. For the last week the ETF has had daily average volatility of 0.657%.

The First Trust Dow Jones Global Select ETF is overbought on RSI14 and lies in the upper part of the trend. Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity for the short-term trader, but some ETFS may go long and hard while being overbought. Regardless, the high RSI together with the trend position increases the risk and higher daily movements (volatility) should be expected. A correction down in the nearby future seems very likely and it is of great importance that the ETF manages to break the trend before that occurs. Since the First Trust Dow Jones Global Select has been rising for 6 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: $32.51 (-3.73%) (This ETF has very low daily movements and this gives very low risk. The RSI14 is 88 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 11 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (FGD) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 20th

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 20th we expect First Trust Dow Jones Global Select Dividend Index Fund to open at $33.74, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $33.62 and $33.92, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.300 (+/-0.89%) up or down from last closing price. If First Trust Dow Jones Global Select Dividend Index Fund takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 0.89% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $33.80 (0.09%) than the support at $33.33 (1.30%), 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.
