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.

The First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX ETF holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the ETF giving a positive forecast for the ETF. On further gains, the ETF will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately $62.30. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $61.62. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, June 22, 2026, and so far it has risen 2.07%. 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). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. 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 also not.

For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 24th we expect First Trust Consumer Staples AlphaDEX Fund to open at $61.91, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $61.73 and $62.55, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.83 (+/-1.34%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $62.57 (0.69%) than the support at $61.42 (1.16%), 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.
