Stronger technical forecast for Schwab Strategic Trust - Schwab ETF price after Friday trading
(Updated on Jul 31, 2026)
The Schwab Strategic Trust - Schwab ETF price fell by -0.477% on the last day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026) from $33.52 to $33.36. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.88% from a day low at $33.12 to a day high of $33.41. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.52% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 54 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, 1 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $33.48 million.
The ETFis at the upper part of a horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at $33.52 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Schwab Strategic Trust - Schwab ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $31.84 and $33.83 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 Schwab Strategic Trust - Schwab 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.

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect Schwab Strategic Trust - Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF to open at $33.30, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $33.20 and $33.52, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.312 (+/-0.94%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $33.52 (0.48%) than the support at $32.41 (2.85%), 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.
