PSCI Signals & Forecast
There are mixed signals in the ETF today. The PowerShares S&P SmallCap Industrials ETF holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the ETF giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On further gains, the ETF will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $122.28. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the short-term average at $120.49. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell during the last trading day while the price increased. This causes a divergence and may be considered as an early warning, but it may also not. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, April 18, 2024, and so far it has risen 2.52%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for PowerShares S&P SmallCap Industrials ETF
PowerShares S&P SmallCap Industrials finds support from accumulated volume at $120.68 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

During the last day, the ETF moved $1.02 between high and low, or 0.84%. For the last week the ETF has had daily average volatility of 1.43%.

Trading Expectations (PSCI) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 29th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 29th we expect PowerShares S&P SmallCap Industrials Portfolio to open at $121.43, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $119.57 and $123.19, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.81 (+/-1.49%) up or down from last closing price. If PowerShares S&P SmallCap Industrials Portfolio takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.98% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $121.50 (0.10%) than the support at $120.68 (0.58%), 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.
