ETF net selling increases float amid portfolio rebalancing

Institutional activity on September 25 showed ETFs reducing their holdings in Cadence Design Systems, with $11.8 million worth of shares sold, according to Gurufocus. This net selling by ETF channels increases the available float and often signals portfolio rebalancing or evolving sector allocation strategies among institutional investors. Despite the additional supply and potential sentiment effects from this ETF-driven move, current price action suggests robust demand from other market participants.

Momentum remains bullish despite overbought signals and support levels

On the technical front, CDNS is trading above the MA-20 and MA-50 on the working timeframe, and remains above the MA-200 on the daily chart. The Ichimoku Kijun at $323.39 sets immediate support for the session. Momentum signals are bullish, with the MACD on Strong Buy, ADX on Buy, and the Awesome Oscillator supporting the current uptrend. RSI reads 69.61, while CCI and Bull/Bear Power show overbought conditions, and the Stoch RSI remains Neutral — all indicating strong buyer dominance but with a risk of short-term exhaustion.

Neutral range forecast as volatility defines near-term direction

Looking ahead over the next 2–3 trading days, CDNS is expected to fluctuate within a volatility band between $319.41 and $341.43. The most probable scenario is a continuation of sideways price action inside this range. In a bullish breakout, gains may extend beyond the upper boundary, while a decline below the Ichimoku Kijun support at $323.39 could trigger corrective moves.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees constructive momentum in Cadence Design Systems despite recent ETF outflows. He notes that short-term supply from institutional selling is being absorbed by strong demand, as price action and technicals remain clearly bullish. Karapetjanc believes that sector rotation is not undermining market confidence at current levels. "With solid institutional backing and bullish momentum, I expect CDNS to stay resilient and keep testing the upper end of its recent range."

Earlier, analysts noted that Cadence Design Systems was exhibiting sustained bullish momentum despite technical resistance and potential overbought conditions. The latest market action, including continued strength above key moving averages and renewed institutional rebalancing, highlights $323.39 as a pivotal support level in the upcoming sessions for traders seeking confirmation of trend direction.
