Iv seen many stocks get called out on a “gap” and then still go keep on going down and iv seen many not fill the gap and carry on north. The mention of a gap on these types of stocks is purely to push the price down weather its a large holder trying to pick up cheaper or a holder who sold into the rise and is trying to pick up cheaper. Just how I see it. Sorry if I’m wrong and don’t mean to affend just find it hard to believe a genuine holder would be mentioning gaps right now trying to scare people into selling
