FTC.L Signals & Forecast
The FIRST TRUST LARGE CAP GROWTH ALPHADEX stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. 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 the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at £54.00 and £51.25.
