A gap is a break between prices on a chart that occurs when the price of a stock makes a sharp move up or down with no trading occurring in between.
This happens because buy or sell orders are placed before the open that cause the price to open higher or lower than the previous day’s close.
Gaps can be created by factors such as regular buying or selling pressure, earnings announcements, a change in an analyst’s outlook or any other type of news release and
