Stronger technical forecast for First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX ETF price after Wednesday trading
(Updated on Jul 01, 2026)
The First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX ETF price gained 1.44% on the last trading day (Wednesday, 1st Jul 2026), rising from $62.62 to $63.52. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.18% from a day low at $62.92 to a day high of $63.67. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 0.65% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 865 more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 23 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $1.43 million.
The ETFhas broken the falling short-term trend up. Firstly a slower falling rate is indicated, but this may very well be an early signal of a trend shift. On the reaction, there will be support on the roof of the current trend broken, which is $63.16, a level that may pose a second chance to hit a runner. According to fan-theory $67.09 will be the next possible trend-top level and thereby pose a resistance level that may not be broken at the first attempt.
FXG Signals & Forecast
The First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX 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 $62.86 and $61.72. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, June 22, 2026, and so far it has risen 4.34%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX has increased volume and follows the last lift in the price. This is considered to be a technical positive sign as volume should follow the price-formation. Higher liquidity also reduces the general risk. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Trading Expectations (FXG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 2nd
For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 2nd we expect First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX Fund to open at $63.37, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $63.10 and $63.94, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.83 (+/-1.32%) up or down from last closing price. If First Trust Consumer Staples 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 $64.29 (1.21%) than the support at $62.57 (1.50%), 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.
Is First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX Fund ETF A Buy?
Several short-term signals are positive and the break-up from the falling trend indicates a possible shift for a trend. We believe that the prices around the breaking point will indicate particularly good levels, but we also believe that the current level will hold a possible good buy level for the short-term period. We have upgraded our analysis conclusion for this ETF since the last evaluation from a Hold to a Buy candidate.
