ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 ETF Forecast
ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 ETF downgraded from Buy Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Wednesday trading session.
(Updated on Apr 24, 2024)
The ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 ETF price gained 0.139% on the last trading day (Wednesday, 24th Apr 2024), rising from $35.99 to $36.04. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 2.55% from a day low at $35.65 to a day high of $36.56. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 5.6% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 570 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 7 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $255.24 million.
The ETF lies in the upper part of a very wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $39.49 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 148.80% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $26.95 and $98.26 at the end of this 3-month period.

SPXU Signals & Forecast
The ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 ETF holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the ETF giving a positive forecast for the stock. On further gains, the ETF will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately $36.93. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $15.97. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, April 19, 2024, and so far it has fallen -6.02%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 ETF
ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 finds support from accumulated volume at $34.86 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
This ETF may move very much during the day (volatility) and with a very large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this ETF is considered to be "very high risk". During the last day, the ETF moved $0.91 between high and low, or 2.55%. For the last week, the ETF has had daily average volatility of 3.46%.
The ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 ETF is overbought on RSI14 and lies in the upper part of the trend. Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity for the short-term trader, but some ETFS may go long and hard while being overbought. Regardless, the high RSI together with the trend position increases the risk and higher daily movements (volatility) should be expected. A correction down in the nearby future seems very likely and it is of great importance that the ETF manages to break the trend before that occurs.
Our recommended stop-loss: $34.17 (-5.18%) (This ETF has very high daily movements and this gives very high risk. The RSI14 is 91 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 3 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (SPXU) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 25th
For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 25th we expect ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 to open at $36.08, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $34.25 and $37.83, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.79 (+/-4.96%) up or down from last closing price. If ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 9.93% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $36.15 (0.31%) than the support at $34.86 (3.27%), 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 ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 ETF A Buy?
ProShares UltraPro Short S&P500 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. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this ETF since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.
Current score: 0.471 Hold/Accumulate Downgraded
