Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index ETF Forecast

Weaker technical forecast for Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index as ETF downgraded to Hold/Accumulate.
(Updated on May 17, 2024)

HXQ.TO Signals & Forecast

The Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index ETF 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 corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $71.55 and $69.91. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. 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. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, May 16, 2024, and so far it has fallen -0.263%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index gained volume on the last day, but on falling prices. In technical terms, this is called divergence and may be an early warning. In some cases, increasing volume on falling prices may be considered positive, but that is mainly in typical "sell-offs". The ETF had a Golden Star Signal on Wednesday, November 01, 2023 in the long-term chart.

Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the ETF in question.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index ETF

Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index finds support from accumulated volume at $71.46 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This ETF is usually traded at a good volume, and with minor daily changes, the risk is considered to be low. During the last day, the ETF moved $0.410 (0.571%) between high and low. For the last week, the ETF has had daily average volatility of 0.575%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $70.18 (-2.66%) (This ETF has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 1 day ago.)

Trading Expectations (HXQ.TO) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 21st

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 21st we expect Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index ETF to open at $72.07, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $71.40 and $72.80, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.701 (+/-0.97%) up or down from last closing price. If Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index ETF takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.95% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $72.29 (0.26%) than the support at $71.46 (0.89%), 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 Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index ETF ETF A Buy?

Horizons NASDAQ-100 Index holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this ETF since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.

Current score: 0.000 Hold/Accumulate Downgraded

Zero in score indicates that our system is expecting high volatility and risk for the following trading day. Given the latest developments, we cannot determine the next direction as it may go both ways.
