What I can learn from Exponential Gaps
Exponential Gaps indicates momentum buyers are piling on to the trade at every gap ups. Animal Spirits lifts the market higher and higher thereby creating a euphoric environment. Too many animal spirits are dangerous for the trend persistence and the reversal odds are high.
Why does that Matters?
From a traders perspective it makes a little sense but it matters a lot from a short term or medium term investors perspective. An Emotional Buyers market is sort of overbought market where an short term/medium term investor rarely benefit in the given scenario. statistically, the odds of closing the gaps favor a lot. Chasing the trend as current junction might not be a wise decision though.
