With each stock’s recap, we will include a (with market support) or (without market support) tag, designating whether the trade triggered with or without market directional support at the time. Anything in the first five minutes will be considered WITHOUT market support because market direction cannot be determined that early.
From the report, FITB triggered (without market support) and didn’t work:
ZION triggered long (without market support due to the opening five minutes) and ended up working later in the day, but with a shaky start:
ASBC gapped over the trigger, so no play, which is unfortunate because it worked great after that.
