FIRST TRUST HORIZON MANAGED VOLATILITY ETF price up 0.317% on Monday
(Updated on Jul 13, 2026)
The FIRST TRUST HORIZON MANAGED VOLATILITY ETF price gained 0.317% on the last trading day (Monday, 13th Jul 2026), rising from $37.90 to $38.02. It has now gained 7 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% from a day low at $38.02 to a day high of $38.02. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.42% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -166 shares and in total, 11 shares were bought and sold for approximately $418.22 . 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 ETFhas broken the narrow and 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 $37.66, a level that may pose a second chance to hit a runner. According to fan-theory $39.18 will be the next possible trend-top level and thereby pose a resistance level that may not be broken at the first attempt.
HDMV Signals & Forecast
The FIRST TRUST HORIZON MANAGED VOLATILITY 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 $37.74 and $37.31. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, June 05, 2026, and so far it has risen 4.34%. 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 not be. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
