Technical Analysis

Longer Term Trading Plans for VXF
  • Buy VXF near 247.41 target n/a stop loss @ 246.7. Details
  • The technical summary data tells us to buy VXF near 247.41, but there is no current upside target from the summary table. In this case we should wait until either an update to the summary table has been made (which usually happens at the beginning of every trading day), or until the position has been stopped. The data does tell us to set a stop loss 246.7 to protect against excessive loss in case the stock begins to move against the trade. 247.41 is the first level of support below 250.02, and by rule, any test of support is a buy signal. In this case, if support 247.41 is being tested, a buy signal would exist.

    There are no current resistance levels from the summary table, and therefore there are no Short resistance Plans which tell us to short upon tests of resistance. Resistance levels have broken higher and unless the stock reverses lower and below support levels again short positions look risky.

Swing Trading Plans for VXF
  • Buy VXF slightly over 253.4, target n/a, Stop Loss @ 252.67 Details

The data also tells us to set a stop loss @ 252.67 in case the stock turns against the trade. 253.4 is the first level of resistance above 250.02, and by rule, any break above resistance is a buy signal. In this case, 253.4, initial resistance, would be breaking higher, so a buy signal would exist. Because this plan is based on a break of resistance, it is referred to as a Long Resistance Plan.
