F - Breakaway Gap (Time to hop on?)

By Juliac
F's downtrend started to flatten out from mid June (trading between 10:65 - 12.45), eventually breaking above the "neckline" @ 12.45 on 19 July. It retested this neckline a week later and held, giving conviction that this previous "resistence" is now a new "support".

Today it gapped up on strong volume as earnings had surprised to the upside. It is likely that some people had been betting on a good set of results since recently. The uptrend is likely firmer now.

Nibbling @ current price and looking to add if there is any dip over the next few days. However, the gap @ 13.20 might not fill anytime soon (breakaway gaps usually signify the start of a new trend and do not get filled in the near term).
