During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.353% from a day low at $46.71 to a day high of $46.88. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 0.6% over the past 2 weeks.

The ETF is moving within a narrow and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect ISHARES EDGE HIGH YIELD DEFENSIVE BOND ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $46.58 and $47.39 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and ETFS seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. ETFS turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

The ISHARES EDGE HIGH YIELD DEFENSIVE BOND 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 $46.77. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $46.73. 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.

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 rose on falling prices yesterday.
