VUG Signals & Forecast
The VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND SHARES 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 $345.36. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $339.45. 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 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.
