Bulls will be hesitant to chase things up now, and this fits well with my theme of a weakening bear-market rally.

I couldn't agree more. Big sell-off at the end of the session. :-) “The day isn’t over yet”

The day isn't over yet, but it is hard for the S&P to put on a show when the financial are dead in the water. Since the big slide on Wednesday, the financials have flat-lined. Matt Dressguard,

What I'm really talking about is an "exhaustion gap". When you get a gap up, and then a red candle, it shows that the population of buyers has become exhausted and the trend has reversed. So, by comparing the exhaustion gaps, I am looking at how much enthusiasm the buyers were able to generate on these climax days. Matt Hi Dressguard,

Why didn't you take yesterday as a gap-up? Does it have to be red? Thanks for clarification. Hi Matt, how do you define a gap-up? Why didn’t you take yesterday
