First Trust Indxx Global Agriculture ETF Forecast

Green day on Thursday for First Trust Indxx Global Agriculture
(Updated on May 02, 2024)

FTAG Signals & Forecast

There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The First Trust Indxx Global Agriculture 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 stock. On further gains, the ETF will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $25.22. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the short-term average at $25.00. 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. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Tuesday, April 09, 2024, and so far it has fallen -3.83%. 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 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.

For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 3rd we expect First Trust Indxx Global Agriculture ETF to open at $25.12, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $24.92 and $25.37, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.226 (+/-0.90%) up or down from last closing price.
