IDU Signals & Forecast

There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The iShares U.S. Utilities ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $114.96 and $114.60. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, July 24, 2026, and so far it has fallen -4.07%. 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 fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.

Trading Expectations (IDU) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 3rd

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect iShares U.S. Utilities ETF to open at $112.63, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $111.55 and $113.23, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.67 (+/-1.50%) up or down from last closing price. If iShares U.S. Utilities ETF takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.50% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $112.58 (0.17%) than the support at $112.11 (0.25%), 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.
