Gap

What it means

Gaps reflect a jump in price from one session or bar sequence to the next and often become meaningful context levels.

What to watch

Not all gaps deserve equal attention. Size, location, and follow-through matter more than the gap alone.

Where traders usually run into this

Gap matters most when it starts affecting an actual chart read, indicator setting, or workflow choice rather than staying as an abstract definition.

• Session Open keeps this term attached to a real glossary instead of leaving it as standalone jargon.
• Anchored VWAP keeps this term attached to a real indicator instead of leaving it as standalone jargon.
• Opening Range keeps this term attached to a real glossary instead of leaving it as standalone jargon.

Best next page if this term is blocking you

If you understand the definition but still do not know what to do with it, start with Anchored VWAP. That page is the fastest way to see how gap shows up in a real indicator workflow.
