A Tale of Two Pullbacks: $LO $INTU $study

-Both $LO and $INTU gapped up today. A common trade is to buy the pullback that inevitably occurs. This worked for $LO but clearly not for $INTU as shown in the charts. Both made clear pullback bases from which one can put a low risk stop, but one worked and the other failed.

-In fact $INTU made it back to the opening price which is very suspicious and probably indicates it has further to fall today.
