Pleasure P, something else on these gaps, spesialy the gap down's. When the price goes below S2 during the day, check the % diff between the low for that day and the high of 3 day's ago, iff it is >= -2.5%...  wait for a cross back above S2 for a long position and you have a "guaranteed" long.

 

Depending on your risk appetite, you can place a stop of 100 points below the low of that day.

 

See chart for examples.

Since Jan 2011 we had 35 full gap-up days (excluding 11/08/14)......5 still open and 42 full gap-down's.... all closed.

 

So, the odds for this one to get closed = 85%

Thanks for the interesting info Mhlato.

 

Other important question, how quickly did most of them close....open vs time?

M - since you have full in bold - your definition pls - interesting stats - solid stats is good trading management info... :)


Plasma, full gap up = Low > High[1] and full gap down = High < Low[1] It means that at the end of the trading day there is a open gap to be closed.

Thanks M :)

Would that be the intra day high during normal trading, or 24h data?

There is no gap in 24 hour data.

Ja ja ...technically correct....but we still have 2 data point here as reference....I can still define it as a gap if there is a differential between the 2 points evening looking at 24h data. The real question here is then what are the time parameters for the 2 data points.

M pls provide, eg cash or futures and whether it is 0830 or 0900 etc...
