Gap Trading Strategy – Complete Guide (Hindi + English)

Gap Trading ek powerful intraday strategy hai jo market ke opening par hone wale price gaps par based hoti hai.

Simple language me: 👉 Jab market previous close se upar ya neeche open hota hai → use gap kehte hain

Aur isi gap ko use karke traders profit banate hain.

Gap ka matlab hota hai price ka ek level se direct doosre level par jump karna, beech me koi trading nahi hoti.

Example:
Yesterday Close = ₹100
Today Open = ₹105 → Gap Up
Today Open = ₹95 → Gap Down

1. Gap Up

Market higher open hota hai → bullish signal

2. Gap Down

Market lower open hota hai → bearish signal

3. Common Gap

Small gap jo jaldi fill ho jata hai

4. Breakaway Gap

Strong trend start hone ka signal

5. Exhaustion Gap

Trend ke end ka signal

Gap trading me sabse important concept hai: 👉 Gap fill hoga ya nahi?

Market 2 tarah behave karta hai:

• Gap Fill → price wapas previous close tak aata hai
• Gap Continuation → price same direction me move karta hai
