WHAT is Gap Trading?
Gap trading is a strategy that takes advantage of a sharp price difference between yesterday’s close and today’s open.
This difference forms a “gap” on the chart—literally an empty space where no trading occurred.

There are two types:

Gap Up = Price opens higher than yesterday’s close.

Gap Down = Price opens lower than yesterday’s close.

These gaps are often caused by after-hours news, earnings, upgrades, downgrades, or economic headlines.

💡 WHY Trade Gaps?
Because emotion creates opportunity.

Gaps are often fueled by panic or euphoria—not logic. That means:

Prices may have overreacted, and there’s a chance to profit when it corrects.

Or, prices are breaking out into a new trend, and you can ride the momentum.

Gap trading offers:

Quick entries and exits

Clear risk/reward setups

Defined targets (like the “gap fill” level)

And guess what?
Statistically, many gaps fill—meaning the price moves back to the previous day’s close—especially when the move was based on temporary fear or hype.

⏰ WHEN Do You Trade Gaps?
At the market open. Most gaps happen overnight and are visible right at 9:30 AM EST.

Right after a major news release. (e.g., earnings, government policy, CEO scandal, etc.)

Post-event reaction plays. Once the dust settles, you get the real move—the rational move.

The best trades happen in the first 30 to 90 minutes of the trading day.

🌍 WHERE Do You Find Gaps?
Pre-market scanners: Tools like Finviz, Trade Ideas, or your broker’s platform can show you what’s gapping.

Look for stocks with:

Big overnight price changes

Volume spikes

News catalysts

Focus on liquid, well-known stocks (like DuPont, Apple, Tesla, etc.) with solid history and chart patterns.

🔧 HOW Do You Trade Gaps?
There are 2 major strategies:

✅ 1. The Gap Fill Strategy (a.k.a. “Fade the Gap”)
You're betting the price will reverse back toward the previous close.

Example:
Stock closes at $78.

Gaps down to $55 on news (like tariffs).

You buy at $55 expecting it to rebound.

Target = near $78.

Risk = set a stop-loss below the low (e.g., $52).

This is ideal when:

The news is temporary or overblown

The company is strong fundamentally

The drop was emotional, not logical

✅ 2. Gap and Go Strategy
You’re betting the gap will continue in the same direction.

Example:
Stock gaps up on huge earnings and high volume.

You buy at open and ride the trend higher.

This works best when:

There’s real news with strong fundamentals

Volume is high

There's no overhead resistance (nothing in the way on the chart)
