Market Action
Great response to the gap down but now we need to see follow through and reclaims of MAs. Still could be plenty of news catalysts that impact things.
Recent gappers have acted well.
QQQ
Strong oops reversal. needs to follow through and get above the 21
IWM
Strong reclaim
IBIT
Strong push higher. Finally ready to test the 21?
Current View: Correction, Rally attempt active. A break above the 21ema would start a developing uptrend.

Additional Thoughts
Need to see follow though for an uptrend to really get going. individual names acting much better than QQQ, Strong action from gappers.
