| Oracle gaps down as a volatile session begins. The opening turns out to be the low for the day as the stock heads vertical for a 6-½ point gain in under 1 hour. Focus attention on the gap itself during these events. Watch how quickly it fills and whether it offers a pullback opportunity after it does. Notice how ORCL mounts the broken hammer from the prior afternoon that also marks the gap's extension. After it completes a First Rise, it pulls back 38% into a Cup and Handle pattern that ejects through the top. |
