First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund III ETF price down 0.146% on Friday
(Updated on Jul 31, 2026)
The First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund III ETF price fell by -0.146% on the last day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026) from $91.13 to $90.99. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.25% from a day low at $90.09 to a day high of $91.22. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.81% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 12 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 13 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $1.17 million.
The ETF lies in the upper part of a narrow and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $91.18 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 3.64% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $90.39 and $94.49 at the end of this 3-month period.
RFDI Signals & Forecast
The First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund III ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the ETF. 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 $89.27 and $88.17. 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, July 30, 2026, and so far it has fallen -0.146%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund III 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".

Trading Expectations (RFDI) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 3rd
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund III RiverFront Dynamic Developed Intl ETF to open at $90.77, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $90.52 and $91.46, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.94 (+/-1.04%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $91.13 (0.15%) than the support at $88.54 (2.70%), 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.
