Stock Gaps – Trading Stock Gaps
Stock gaps occur as a result of excessive buy or sell orders which forces prices either up or down.
The closing price today will not necessarily be the opening price tomorrow in a stock. This is due to the fact that demand or supply may shift an order bias, causing the stock to gap higher or lower the following session. If there are many more buyers than sellers, a stock will gap up. If there are many more sellers than buyers, a stock will gap down.
Common Gap – Common Gap Stock
The common gap is the most frequent type of stock gap. Common gaps occur within the normal course of trading and are insignificant developments in terms of price action. Common gaps are minor in size, occur often, and are not accompanied by high volume. Common gaps tend to fill soon after they are formed.
