Gap Filled

Gaps in stock charts don't always fill—it's a popular trading adage, but data shows they fill around 80% of the time, especially common gaps in ranging or low-volume markets.

They occur when a stock's price jumps sharply between one trading session's close and the next open, often due to after-hours news, earnings reports, or shifts in market sentiment, leaving a "void" on the chart with no trades in between. This void acts like a magnet for price action!

Now the Good News

Once filled, the prior gap level can act as support, attracting buyers who see it as a potential bounce point after the corrective move. However, the outcome depends on the macro. Statistically, studies and trader analyses indicate that after a gap fills, the price reverses direction (in this case, bouncing back up) about 80% of the time.

H.T to Wheelyums for picking up on this.

So, for the whole year we were advised to buy mstr, bitcoin, solano. And Tesla. Only buy. Never sell.

Gap closures on TSLA have been a good buy point for me to build my bags. Next one at 368.99

I feel like I should be able to be in here panicking freaking out about how half my portfolio is gone in the last month and a half and all sorts of stuff but I realize nobody enjoys that and there’s no answers I screwed up. I know how I screwed up. I didn’t have a plan. I didn’t take profit at the right time and I’m trying to deal with the shock of being 51 and dealing with the thought that my phone has had over $18,000 in my portfolio in my pocket for two years straight that would’ve covered my entire mortgage and my car note and still left me like 20,000 now that it’s like almost 3033 like and I can’t do that anymore. It just seems common sense that any human with half a brain Would’ve paid off their house and car out and kept the profit when they had it rather than I just waited for this dream, this is my first cycle and I thought I just really wanted to see what all season was gonna do. It seems like it made people millionaires every other cycle. I just kept getting sucked back into that same theory. I’m mostly just Solana. I figured if one was gonna pop that had to be it. God knows man if we get a pump it’ll be the best pump and the best feeling in the last four years to know I finally held his every time I’ve sold in the last four years. It’s been in a moment of panic and I regretted it more than ending it moment in crypto so I can’t quite figure out if I’m supposed to take my profit in bitcoin fast before it drops to 60,000 so I can buy $12,000 worth when it drops because if I don’t, I’m just gonna look at the number and maybe buy $25 Sorry I did it anyway I just rambled and cried in here. I know it’s not how it works or possible, but I just I think I just deleted the thinking that a lot here at the end I kind of thought maybe there would be like a trade alert from James sayingthis is a good point to sell half your salon. I don’t know what I thought. Thank you James. At least I got to see life-changing money. The screenshots weren’t very fun. Well racing was really not fun.

J - man

seems like a mistake to buy before the gap fill as there was a 20% chance that it wouldnt fill it.
