Market wide Gaps! Breakout or retrace?


Mercury

Recommended Posts

In classic charting lore price gaps are almost always closed and quite quickly.  The main exceptions being the so-called "breakaway gap" and "continuation gap".  The former is essentially a major reversal in trend, does last nights gap feel like that?  The latter signals a resumption of a long term trend after a significant retrace (essentially a mini reversal) and often occurs around the halfway point in a major trend but this gap is going in opposition to the recent trend and I find it hard to believe we are at the halfway point of a long term rally...

 

Therefore I would expect the overnight gaps to be closed and reasonable soon.  Depending on the specific market this may signify different things.  For stock indices my road map suggests gap closure and continuation down to a lower low.  However on Oil I think the gap closure represents a retrace before a longer rally.

 

Given the proximity of the US election I am risk off at present but if I weren't I would be waiting for gap closures before deciding on my next move.  Oil and copper represent interesting markets that are largely unaffected by the US election nonsense.  Copper barely registered any gap and on Oil it was very small and within normal operating experience.

    • I've been exploring the world of play-to-earn gaming recently, looking for something that's not just about endless grinding but actually offers a fun and rewarding experience. OGC really stood out to me because it combines gaming with a sense of community in a unique way. OGC isn't just a game; it's a platform where you can play, earn, and even help shape its future. You're not just a player; you're part of a community with a voice. The idea of earning crypto while playing games is exciting, but what makes OGC special is its focus on community involvement. Your feedback can directly influence the development of the game, which is a big deal. I've also heard that the OGC token is available for pre-market trading on Bitget. While I'm still getting to know the platform and its features, it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Has anyone else tried OGC? What has your experience been like? I'd love to hear your thoughts and any tips you might have.
