DIS Testing Fundamental SupportWhen Americans feel depressed or unhappy about life, they tend to spend more money on fun things--something to consider during a presidential election year.
For now, NYSE:DIS is looking fine for its earnings report next week. It was over-speculated, so adjusting back down closer to fundamental support is normal. The gap up in February was on way better than expected earnings, so that level should hold up well.
However, HFTs and MEME groups have been going gaga over earnings and other news. If HFTs or MEMEs drive it down, it will move right back up due to Dark Pool activity first, and then pro trader activity.

TSLA set for reversalAs we have been selling off very heavingly in recent days, Monday auction tells me that bears got too short. When sentiment shifts dramatically, big reversal happens and the same thing is for Tesla.
Inability to close the gap is good sign that market participants want to trade in upper stock price range. In addition to gap play, there is potential Daily positive divergence forming which may set a tone for the rest of the month.
USE GAPS AS SUPPORT & RESISTANCE! Today's tutorial covers the topic of GAPS:
** what is a gap? **
- Gaps occur when a stock moves up (or down) significantly during pre- and postmarket hours, so that there is a major difference between closing and opening price. A lot of times this gap will get "filled" over time, which means that the market is often attracted by a gap.
** A gap up is filled to the downside **
** A gap down is filled to the upside **
-> ** KEEP IN MIND GAP FILLS DO NOT HAVE TO HAPPEN! **
In this tutorial I'll show you how you can ** use GAPS as support & resistance **:
--> Look at the chart:)
Bitcoin - What is GAP?You may have noticed that I often use the word GAP, after many questions about what it is. I thought I'd tell you.
What is GAP?
If translated verbatim, a GAP (GAP) is a gap, the difference between quotes on Friday and the opening of the market on Monday. And if the difference between the closing price on Friday and the opening on Monday is significant, then a jump will occur. That is, the price is noticeably higher or lower than the price that was on Friday and it is clearly visible on the chart, as in the example below:
We can see that the closing price on Friday was about $9295 and the opening price on Monday was $9705. That is about 410 points higher than the closing price on Friday:
And this gap, which is formed between the market close price on Friday and the opening price on Monday, is called the GAP. Naturally, a GAP is not always formed. On average, it can be seen once a month and is more common in Forex and stock markets. Sometimes more often, sometimes less often, but the fact is that GAPs happen and you can make money on them.
Why do GAPs happen?
GAPs occur because during the time when the market is not active, namely over the weekend, a certain number of sell and buy orders are accumulated. And when the market opens on the night from Sunday to Monday, these very orders collapse and create a jump, as we saw on the chart earlier.
Of course, this does not always happen, but only when there is a significant advantage in Buy or Sell orders accumulated over the weekend. Market makers see a huge number of Buy or Sell orders and, accordingly, we see the price visually above or below the market close values on Friday.
As for the crypt currency: the futures market does not work over the weekend, while the crypt currency exchanges work 24/7, the price during the weekend can be called.
It is worth noting one important point. As a rule, GAPs tend to close.
Let us consider an example:
Why do GAPs tend to close?
The fact is that when the market opens significantly higher or significantly lower than Friday's price, then many orders are activated, many pending orders to buy or sell. Naturally, the stops of these orders are located near the Friday closing price. And thus market makers try to knock out the stops of those guys whose orders have worked at the opening of the market and take their money for themselves.
After the gap was closed, the market can go absolutely in any direction. There are no special regularities here. In general, the gap tends to close, but sometimes it happens that there is a jump in opening prices on Monday, and it continues. It happens only when there is a strong trend movement or some fundamental factors come into play. For example, something could have happened in the economy over the weekend. That is, there is a tendency to close, but not always. You should keep that in mind!
The probability of closing the gap is ≈ 70%

CLN2020: Gap RetestThe July delivery contract is seemingly in a decent spot for buyers. Having retested the bullish structural gap area, oil is now trading at a price where many players are waiting for it choose the direction, which will ultimately accelerate the consequent move as players book profits/losses. This can be interpreted as having greater control of risk, as a $1.5K risk is enough to "know" whether one is wrong being bullish here.
