ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Gaps Change the Risk Profile

  • Gap-down opens often shift short-term risk, even when trends remain intact.

  • Taking profits into strength after a gap helps avoid giving back gains.

  • Scaling out while momentum is still positive keeps you in control, not reactive.

    • Staying flexible allows you to quickly reallocate into leadership when conditions improve.

THU 12/11: TECK – BUYING (1/3) @ $44.97

3:48 PM – Shares are trading higher from the 10 DMA with an increase in volume. That’s always my BUY SIGNAL.

BUY SIGNALS:

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Buying From the 10 DMA

    • A strong advance from the 10 DMA often signals renewed institutional demand.

    • Volume confirmation increases conviction and reduces the chance of a false start.

    • Buying near the 10 DMA keeps risk tighter and entries more efficient.
