Hi Pete,

Was doing my scans and IOT came up. Was thinking this is probably another example of an earning gap trade. Beat on earnings and revenue. Range bound since September.

Now thinking it has turned into a bullish U-Turn based on yesterday’s candle- traded below December 5th open and closed above open and close.

Ok watched coaching call. Super helpful! Thanks!
