Although I have been trading for about 3 years, but I do not know how to guess gap that occurs during the week end. At most cases gap annoys me. It takes time for market to consolidate again and make a new trend when gap occurs.
Is there anyway that we can guess gap. So far I know there are so many factors involved for a gap to be created. Nevertheless, if anyone from here has a clear idea about it, then please share here. Your effort will be appreciated.
I don’t think there’s a surefire way to make a prediction for a gap, probably happens when there are plenty of events lined up for the weekend. For instance, there was the German elections this weekend which led to a euro gap and the Australian elections the other weekend which led the Aussie to gap up. Sometimes Chinese data released over the weekend also leads to gaps. Not sure how you can set your orders and trade those though?
