Brandon do you have any thoughts on the filling or not filling of gaps after an NR day..is there a notable difference? How about after a WR day ?
I had thought that there definatly would be, but I did not find that to be the case. There is much more of a relationship there with breakouts working vs not working. Brandon
brandon's not a snake oil salesman. it's one thing to be suspicious, as there are bad apples out there. it's another to attack one of the good guys. brandon is one of those.
and as a sidebar...(and if it's common knowledge, just skip over it). stocks which are normally 'flat' on the daily range - gap up hugely - and close near the low, in a flat trading range EOD - usually go down (at least) the first 30 minutes of the next trading session. they sometimes offer good pre-market shorts, as well. there's my 2c. for what it's worth.
We have alerts that spot gap up reversals and gap down reversals. You can set the total point retracement threshold to what ever you like. Here is the definition from our help. http://www.trade-ideas.com/Help.html#GDR Best, Dan
