iShares S&P Small-Cap 600 Growth ETF Forecast
iShares S&P Small-Cap 600 Growth ETF price up 0.82% on Friday
(Updated on May 03, 2024)
The iShares S&P Small-Cap 600 Growth ETF price gained 0.82% on the last trading day (Friday, 3rd May 2024), rising from $126.72 to $127.76. It has now gained 3 days in a row. It will be exciting to see whether it manages to continue gaining or take a minor break for the next few days. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.04% from a day low at $127.22 to a day high of $128.55. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 4.54% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -44 thousand shares and in total, 66 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $8.44 million. 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 ETF is moving within a horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect iShares S&P Small-Cap 600 Growth ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $122.43 and $131.82 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.

IJT Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The iShares S&P Small-Cap 600 Growth ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the ETF has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $126.03 and $126.41. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, April 18, 2024, and so far it has risen 5.09%. 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). Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The ETF should be watched closely.

Trading Expectations (IJT) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 6th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 6th we expect iShares S&P Small-Cap 600 Growth ETF to open at $127.84, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $125.84 and $129.68, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.92 (+/-1.50%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $127.84 (0.06%) than the support at $127.33 (0.34%), 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.
