This morning, $PLTR saw a massive gap down at the open dropping nearly $8+ in minutes. Traders woke up to a bloodbath as volume spiked hard. Let’s unpack what this means
The drop wasn’t random. Notice the huge sell imbalance right at 8:30 AM. Institutions likely unloading positions. Retail traders who chased highs yesterday are now trapped.
Key levels to watch on this chart:
For day traders:
Nothing about Palantir’s fundamentals changed overnight. These moves are often market psychology, not company collapse. Always separate price action vs business value.
What’s next?
If $PLTR can reclaim $167, we may see a grind back toward $170+.
If it loses $162, sellers likely push toward $160 and below.
Don’t chase, don’t panic. Levels + volume always tell the story. Today, $PLTR gave us a perfect example of how institutions use fear to move markets.
PLTR 162.01 next?
