When You Come to a Gap in the Road…

pictures_of_the_day_18

…you’ve got to respect it. Most gaps on a chart do indeed get filled, which is why they are called “common gaps.” We started 2013 with a bullish breakaway gap higher which has yet to be filled, obviously a rare and very bullish event.

However, the SPY hourly chart, zoomed-out, which we looked at yesterday is showing we are in bonafide gap-fill territory dating back to early-May. So, that most recent gap higher is not as bullish and may even have been the beginning of a blow-off top.

We can drift down to just below $159.90 before the next level with memory comes in.
