1⃣ Gap-up
2⃣ Gap-down
3⃣ Common gap
4⃣ Breakaway gap
5⃣ Continuation gap
6⃣ Exhaustion gap
7⃣ Island gap
1⃣ What is Gap-up?
When the opening price is above the high of the previous day, we get a gap-up.
🟢How to trade?
➡️Trade in the direction of the gap-up as long as the price remains above the opening of that day.
2⃣ What is Gap-down?
When the opening price is below the previous day's low it's considered as gap-down
🟢how to trade
➡️Look for only shorting opportunity until the high of 15 min candle is not breached.
3⃣ What is the common gap?
When you see gaps forming within a range, then such gaps are called common gaps.
🟢How to trade
➡️Common gaps within a range will always get filled. so look for trading in the direction of gap filling
4⃣ What is the breakaway gap?
When we get a gap-up/gap-down after price consolidation in a tight range then it's called a breakaway gap.
🟢How to trade it?
➡️Trade only in the direction of a breakaway i.e if we get gap-up then only buy and if we get gap-down then only sell.
5⃣ What is the continuation gap?
The frequent gaps that we get in a trending market are examples of continuation gaps.
🟢How to trade?
➡️Go for positional trade/btst trade in the direction of gaps
6⃣ What is the Exhaustion gap?
When a trending markets give a gap up which is not able to break the previous resistance then such a gap is called an exhaustion gap.
🟢how to trade?
➡️once you identify the Exhaustion gap. look for trading in the direction opposite of the gap.
7⃣ What is the island gap?
after a gap-up, if markets consolidate for some days and give a gap down, then this forms an island gap.
🟢how to trade?
➡️Once the formation is complete you'll see a complete trend reversal. trade in direction of reversal

Rig Ved 1.36.7

To do a Namaskaar or bow before someone means that you are humble or without pride and ego. This means that we politely bow before you since you are better than me. Pranipaat(प्राणीपात) also means the same that we respect you without any vanity.

Surrendering False pride is Namaskaar. Even in devotion or bhakti we say the same thing. We want to convey to Ishwar that we have nothing to offer but we leave all our pride and offer you ourselves without any pride in our body. You destroy all our evil karma.

We bow before you so that you assimilate us and make us that capable. Destruction of our evils and surrender is Namaskaar. Therefore we pray same thing before and after any big rituals.

Great article from @AsheSchow. I lived thru the 'Satanic Panic' of the 1980's/early 1990's asking myself "Has eveyrbody lost their GODDAMN MINDS?!"


The 3 big things that made the 1980's/early 1990's surreal for me.

1) Satanic Panic - satanism in the day cares ahhhh!

2) "Repressed memory" syndrome

3) Facilitated Communication [FC]

All 3 led to massive abuse.

"Therapists" -and I use the term to describe these quacks loosely - would hypnotize people & convince they they were 'reliving' past memories of Mom & Dad killing babies in Satanic rituals in the basement while they were growing up.

Other 'therapists' would badger kids until they invented stories about watching alligators eat babies dropped into a lake from a hot air balloon. Kids would deny anything happened for hours until the therapist 'broke through' and 'found' the 'truth'.

FC was a movement that started with the claim severely handicapped individuals were able to 'type' legible sentences & communicate if a 'helper' guided their hands over a keyboard.
