The Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund ETF price gained 0.128% on the last trading day (Friday, 17th May 2024), rising from $233.58 to $233.88. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.697% from a day low at $232.87 to a day high of $234.49. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.89% over the past 2 weeks.

In total, 118 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $27.62 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 $235.10 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $217.23 and $233.89 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.
