POWERSHARES VRI ETF upgraded to Hold/Accumulate
(Updated on Jun 23, 2026)
No changes to the price of POWERSHARES VRI ETF on the last trading day (Tuesday, 23rd Jun 2026). During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.0399% from a day low at $25.04 to a day high of $25.05. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -0.18% loss for the last 2 weeks.
The ETF has broken the narrow and horizontal trend down. Breaks like this are often followed by swift and strong movements, and any correction down to the breakline at approximately $25.05 is considered to be a "second chance" to get out before further fall. It is, however, important to note that false breaks may appear and that the price may move back into the horizontal trend. A break on increasing volume is considered to be more significant and reliable than breaks on low volume.
VRIG Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, June 22, 2026, and so far it has fallen 0%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. 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. The POWERSHARES VRI ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $25.10 and $25.08. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Volume fell during the last trading day while price remained unchanged. This may be an early warning, but it may also not. We still recommend that you pay attention over the next couple of days.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for POWERSHARES VRI ETF
POWERSHARES VRI finds support from accumulated volume at $25.04 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
In general the ETF tends to have very controlled movements and with good liquidity the risk is considered very low in this ETF. During the last day, the ETF moved $0.0100 between high and low, or 0.0399%. For the last week the ETF has had daily average volatility of 0.0717%.
Our recommended stop-loss: $23.23 (-7.28%) (This ETF has very low daily movements and this gives very low risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 1 day ago.)
Trading Expectations (VRIG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 24th
For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 24th we expect POWERSHARES VARIABLE RATE INVESTMENT GRADE PORTFOLIO to open at $25.05, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $25.04 and $25.06, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.0211 (+/-0.08%) up or down from last closing price. If POWERSHARES VARIABLE RATE INVESTMENT GRADE PORTFOLIO takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 0.08% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $25.06 (0.04%) than the support at $25.04 (0.06%), 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.
Is POWERSHARES VARIABLE RATE INVESTMENT GRADE PORTFOLIO ETF A Buy?
POWERSHARES VRI holds several negative signals and this should be a sell candidate, but due to the general chance for a turnaround situation it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development. We have upgraded our analysis conclusion for this ETF since the last evaluation from a Sell to a Hold candidate.
