Red day on Friday for ISHARES CURRENCY HEDGED MSCI JAPAN
(Updated on Jul 31, 2026)
The ISHARES CURRENCY HEDGED MSCI JAPAN ETF price fell by -0.95% on the last day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026) from $62.97 to $62.37. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.52% from a day low at $61.80 to a day high of $62.74. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 0.4% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 7 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 25 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $1.55 million.
The ETF lies in the lower part of a wide and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $61.67 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 5.06% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $64.79 and $71.63 at the end of this 3-month period.
HEWJ Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The ISHARES CURRENCY HEDGED MSCI JAPAN ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $62.82 and $63.75. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, June 22, 2026, and so far it has fallen -6.45%. 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 rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the ETF should be followed more closely.

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect ISHARES CURRENCY HEDGED MSCI JAPAN ETF to open at $62.30, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $61.84 and $62.90, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.05 (+/-1.70%) up or down from last closing price.
