HFTs gaps: Learn how to enter a stock before a huge gap up.High Frequency Trading companies are market makers/takers that provide liquidity for the public exchanges, and they now use AI. HFTs have a huge impact on your profitability. You can make higher profits from trading ahead of the HFT gaps and riding the momentum upward or downward.
In this short video, you'll learn some basics on how to identify the patterns that precede HFT gaps, which I call Pro Trader Nudges . Learn what to look for in Volume patterns and pre-gap price action.
Make sure you are not chasing HFTs but riding the wave of momentum they create, just like professional traders do.

JMIA GAP and Ascending TriangleNYSE:JMIA
This overreaction is the best, we have so many things we can't wait to share with everyone.
First we have a massive gap after the overreaction upon earnings, many of which are bought right back as every reaction is an over reaction.
( We're sure JMIA would meet the necessary in order to be profitable. )
Second, on the 15M chart we have a ascending triangle and not only followed with a golden cross ready to break.
We still have on every time frame from 1H to 2H,3H,4H and D charts the MACD crossing up showing other signs of run up
My checklist is over and ready, what about yours ?
NASDAQ: Daily Next Support $9838 and $9018There is a 9% price drop until the next support is hit. Most recently on Friday the support at $10747 was hit and there was a slight bounce. The expectation is now some sideways slightly down action. If there is a 50% retractment to 11k it would meet expectations. The green lines on the chart is the daily gap up and shows support.
The next support is at the minor high of of $9838, which comes right around a nice $10,000 number. "Nice" numbers are more psychological and they provide support and resistance. If you see there was a nice gap up at $7,000 and from there there NASDAQ never look back till 12,000.
Enjoy all the Support lines. :)
P.S. This analysis was mainly done in conjunction with my podcast where I explain Support and Resistance using Gap Ups and Different Time Frames
Below is the hourly Chart Analysis:
US 30 in ABC Correction? Road to ATH; in Handle of CupVolume lessens on rising prices, increases on downdrafts. RSI divergent. Small caps have reached .50 Fibo retrace off September's lower high.
SP500 and Dow have a gap to fill down to the 0.50 Fibo.
Three-day rally feels like a B wave, chaotic and widely fluctuant. If so, expect C wave down to the gapfill at the breakout point from Cup near 26300/SandP 2942.
A hedged short here is probably a fair R/R as EOM 'window-dressing' is likely to finish what seems to be a modest correction. The ABC is consistent with Intermediate Wave 2 of a Primary wave 3; markets should enter third-in-third wave on completion of the modest correction. A severe tankoff would invalidate this hypothesis!
IMO another major October downdraft is unlikely as these rarely happen two years in a row; but anything is possible in this mad market.
Taking a small short position on indexes with the gap up in AM on 9/27; this gap will very likely fill in day; first week of October is likely to be choppy.
Completing a corrective wave might coincide with positive trade news in Mid-October; if the outcome is disappointing expect a deeper selloff.
Still very chancy. Indicators to watch: RUT strong support at 1500 (IWM 150, now trading near 153); small caps have been a leading signal canary.
I'd close shorts with IWM at 150; DIA at 264; SPY at 294, if and when they get to these prices. An ABC complete wave could well provide launch point for next bullrun.
Longer-term still Bullish going into New Year, I'm not convinced this appearance of H&S in the monthly chart is really going to rollover. We shall see!
This isn't investment advice; just an idea, trade at your own risk; GLTA!

Today’s session hypothesis
After yesterday’s successful day for buyers, we came surprised to see the strength of the morning gap. This one is sized with some 140 points which is quite unusual. Dax has now entered the zone below the significant support levels and this is where the price was for the past two months. The first price action level where it is likely for the price to stall is the level laying around 11 735. With the gaps of such size, it is more likely the price continues in the gap direction and it’s close is then less probable.
