No gap @2.62 on my chart
That run from $1.87 to 2.87 suggests there has been a change in outlook for this stock, and for metals in general imho
As for sentiment driven buying...that is the best kind of buying in my books
Look at today's candle.......I would be surprised if there is not further follow through to the upside
But a profit is a profit, so good luck to you. It's a market after all.
