PCAR Gap Fill Before Earnings

BATS:PCAR   PACCAR Inc.
Bought PCAR toady on that second dip today, I was kicking myself yesterday for no going long at open.

Anyways, based on yesterday's action, I'm convinced it wants a gap fill before earnings. It may even retest the top. First, it's gotta get over that resistance at $87, hopefully the market gaps up tomorrow for Ponzi 401k paypday Friday.

If you trade PCAR, you may want to follow my ES1! posts, I mention it quite frequently, but don't always post plots.

CPI release next Thu is supposed to come in pretty low, bullish on everything next week.

Bought some this morning as a gap fill play because it went down $1 with an open gap. I guess I'm holding that too, lol.

Gap fill seems like a forgone conclusion at this point, wondering if it retests $90 ATH.
Comment:
I'm looking at the ES1! (SPX futures) chart, daily indicators on ES and SPX implies a rally ahead, which means PCAR could break out

Might hold until earnings, will decide next week.

Got stuff to do today. Still think it gets that gap fill but don;t have time to watch the market all day. Mdade some money, good enough.

Honestly, I think we would have gotten that gap fill Monday if not for Hamas. I can't predict news, much less an invasion especially when Mossad can't.
Comment:
Looks like Hamas killed the gap fill play, PCAR chart looks awful similar to Bitcoin chart this week.

PCAR stockholders are apparently very risk averse.... so kinda makes sense.
