Among the First Trust funds to return to a buy signal during last week’s holiday shortened week was the First Trust Mid Cap Growth AlphaDEX Fund (FNY).

There were no changes to any of the First Trust Models covered within the report this week.

Among the First Trust funds to return to a buy signal during last week’s holiday shortened week was the First Trust Mid Cap Growth AlphaDEX Fund (FNY), which is a current holding within the First Trust Size and Style Model (FTSIZESTYLE). On the point and figure trend chart, FNY held support at $86 before reversing back to Xs during trading on 11/24 and returning to a buy signal by breaking a double top at $90 on 11/25. Action since has brought the chart to $92 and back to the middle of the 10-week trading band. The ETF’s fund score is a strong 4.11, which is sustained by the long-term positive trend on the default point and figure trend chart and near-term relative strength against the market as defined by the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index (SPXEWI). FNY also maintains a superior fund score relative to the Mid Cap (3.58) and All US (3.90) groups on the Asset Class Group Scores page. The fund is okay to consider here on the breakout. Note the fund’s all-time chart high from October resides at $95. Initial support lies at $86, while the bullish support line sits at $79.
