(Updated on Apr 24, 2024)

EMIF Signals & Forecast

The iShares S&P Emerging Markets ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the ETF has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $21.56 and $21.87. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, and so far it has risen 2.39%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). iShares S&P Emerging Markets 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". The ETF had a Golden Star Signal on Friday, February 16, 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.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for iShares S&P Emerging Markets ETF

iShares S&P Emerging Markets finds support from accumulated volume at $21.81 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

Our recommended stop-loss: $20.90 (-4.45%) (This ETF has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 6 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (EMIF) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 25th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 25th we expect iShares S&P Emerging Markets Infrastructure Index Fund to open at $21.87, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $21.69 and $22.05, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.184 (+/-0.84%) up or down from last closing price. If iShares S&P Emerging Markets Infrastructure Index Fund takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.68% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $21.88 (0.06%) than the support at $21.81 (0.27%), 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 iShares S&P Emerging Markets Infrastructure Index Fund ETF A Buy?

iShares S&P Emerging Markets holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development.
