UUP, ETF for USD gapped up on Friday, question is, an exhaustion gap or breakaway gap?
Over the years, my observation on such a gap after an extended rally is often an exhaustion gap.
FXE, ETF for the euro may help shed some light.
Friday’s gap had the lightest volume relative to the two previous gaps, signs of selling exhaustion.
