Premise
- Monday 27th October 2025 we gapped up 37% of the ABR on the weekly chart
- Open gaps on the weekly chart are rare (ie the close of the week is usually tested in that week)
- In fact it is closed more often in the next few days

- I could only find a few instances when that happened in the past 5 years so I want to review them here.
