Weaker technical forecast for iShares S&P Global Timber & Forestry as ETF downgraded to Sell Candidate.
(Updated on Apr 23, 2024)

WOOD Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, and so far it has risen 1.32%. 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. The iShares S&P Global Timber & Forestry 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 $81.81. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the short-term average at $79.43. 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 fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements. The ETF had a Golden Star Signal on Friday, July 07, 2023 in the long-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 Global Timber & Forestry ETF

iShares S&P Global Timber & Forestry finds support from accumulated volume at $79.45 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This ETF has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the ETF moved $0.774 between high and low, or 0.98%. For the last week, the ETF has had daily average volatility of 1.02%.

iShares S&P Global Timber & Forestry is oversold on RSI14 (23). Some ETFS may drop long and hard while being oversold on RSI before turning, which increases the general risk.

Trading Expectations (WOOD) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 24th

For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 24th we expect iShares S&P Global Timber & Forestry Index Fund to open at $79.58, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $78.49 and $80.61, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.06 (+/-1.33%) up or down from last closing price. If iShares S&P Global Timber & Forestry Index Fund takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.67% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $79.61 (0.08%) than the support at $79.45 (0.13%), 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 Global Timber & Forestry Index Fund ETF A Buy?

iShares S&P Global Timber & Forestry holds several negative signals and we believe that it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We, therefore, hold a negative evaluation of this ETF. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this ETF since the last evaluation from a Hold/Accumulate to a Sell candidate.

Current score: -1.534 Sell Candidate Downgraded
