(Updated on Apr 26, 2024)

VOE Signals & Forecast

There are mixed signals in the ETF today. The Vanguard Mid-Cap Value Index Fund 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 $151.53. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the short-term average at $149.43. 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 rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the ETF should be followed more closely. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, and so far it has risen 2.22%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. The ETF had a Golden Star Signal on Thursday, February 08, 2024 in the short-term chart.

Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the ETF in question.

Trading Expectations (VOE) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 29th

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 29th we expect Vanguard Mid-Cap Value Index Fund ETF Shares to open at $150.30, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $148.44 and $151.72, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.64 (+/-1.09%) up or down from last closing price. If Vanguard Mid-Cap Value Index Fund ETF Shares takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.19% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $150.37 (0.19%) than the support at $146.99 (2.06%), 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.
