Last breakaway gap in the S&P 500 was back in April 2013, which was good for a rally that lasted the following 14 trading days until a textbook reversal candle ended the fun.
Tuesday, we saw another potential breakaway gap …
An incredibly orderly and logical (almost transparent) conclusion to last week. NASDAQ achieved distance from the 50 DMA, The Russell 2000s cleared the 200 DMA, and the S&P 500 closed on new highs!

Bears and bulls frustrated-perhaps the Wolves of Wall Street will fare better tonight for the full moon!
