Gap Up / Gap Down

The stock opens beyond the previous bar’s entire range — overnight news repriced it before trading began.

A gap up opens above yesterday’s high; a gap down opens below yesterday’s low. Something happened while the market was closed — results, an order win, a downgrade — and the opening auction repriced the stock instantly.

Gaps show conviction, but they also get "filled": price often returns to the gap level later, which traders watch as support/resistance.

A gap that HOLDS through the day (no fill) is the stronger signal.

Gaps on results day + volume are information; small gaps on no news are noise.
