Not sure what lying you're referring to, but I always pay attention to gaps of any size. What size makes a gap to you? Either way, a gap of any size is a gap and doesn't reference anything from days prior. A gap up only references the space left between one day's candle top and the next day's candle bottom. You can see it in the chart so it's existence is not debatable. Whether or not it's meaningful or will get filled is another story. Chart looks kinda bull flaggy, but in my experience, gaps up of any size on the daily chart eventually get filled unless something extraordinary occurs. Maybe your post-settlement idea would be that. Maybe congress or the FDA will do something useful. I don't know. I only brought up the short interest to follow up on a previous prediction, and no it is not a huge amount of the float. Nor is it actual short selling. It's just another note. The short interest isn't currently of any consequence on L2. It will either sit until the shares from the note finally do enter the float or they will just refi it again before that happens. Who knows?
