W - strong price action

W had begun to form a saucer base pattern since Sep2022 (4 months basing), eventually cumulating to a break above it's neckline last Friday ( 20 Jan23) on very large volume. The following Monday on 23 Jan23, W announced it will cut 10% of its workforce and the market reacted by gapping the stock straight above it's 200 day moving average on yet another high volume day.

Since then it had pulled back a little, forming a potential bullish flag. Will the recent gap close soon? not necessarily, if it is a breakaway gap (which usually signify the start of a new trend). Can only wait and see.

Meanwhile, it is worth a shot to go long as long as it starts to break above the bull flag, with initial stop loss placed just slightly below the start of the gap @ 46.70. Trail stop up once the trade goes our way.
