Tim Knight is on the road doing charts and audio only, and he zeroes in on one level that matters more than anything else on his screen: a price gap at 762 on the index. Today's low came in at 762.035, within 35 cents of that gap, which is either a remarkable coincidence or exactly the kind of precision that tells a chartist the level is real. The market was down hard earlier and, as it keeps doing, undid the losses by the close. 📊 tastylive: https://www.tastylive.com/ 📰 Get Tom's pre-market analysis every morning: https://www.tastylive.com/newsletters 📘 FREE Options Strategy Guide: https://tinyurl.com/bp9ms763 📱 Follow tastylive on X: https://x.com/tastyliveshow Chapters 00:00 Charts and audio on the road 01:17 A modestly down, mixed day 01:34 The one gap that matters 02:00 Held to within 35 cents 03:00 Every selloff gets reversed 04:30 The individual charts 07:00 Foreign markets and the grind 10:00 Bonds and the long end 13:00 Gold and the metals 16:00 The ratios he is watching #tastylive #timknight #pricegaps #supportlevels #technicalanalysis #choppymarket #shortselling #nasdaq #trading #stockmarket tastylive is a real financial network, producing hours of live programming every day.
