Gap Patterns
Gaps expose sudden imbalances in supply and demand. Some are simple context clues, while others define major shifts in trend strength or direction. Below are the key families of gap patterns.
Common Gap
The most basic type of gap, often appearing in ranges and usually filled quickly. More context than signal, but still important.
Trend-Defining Gaps
Patterns that set the tone of a move — from the breakout start, through momentum acceleration, to the final exhaustion push.
Reversal Gap Formations
When gaps isolate candles or clusters, they can signal sharp sentiment flips and trend reversals.
Tasuki Gaps
Continuation Patterns where a counter candle confirms the move without closing the gap.
