DraftKings' much-needed correction to my Buy Zone at the established 2024/ 2025 trading support at $33s is finally here, as the market overreacts to the prediction markets' success.

This is especially since the American Gaming Association is already reporting growing iGaming revenues in the US, nearly tripled compared to Q2'21 levels.
