why is there a gap I also don't understand, but if I read an article, the get must happen at the opening, whether it's the opening of the period candlestick or the weekly opening, but most of the weekly openings are on Mondays.

if you pay attention to the gap actually not only occurs when open only, when close also happens, this indicates that the market always has its own surprises, but I do not know for sure until now what causes the gap, because I do not care too much about it

maybe the gap occurs because there is a buildup of empty transactions there, because if I observe the gap occurs always the weekly opening is often either with a low or even high jump but do not have to worry about it because we only focus on our trading plan

gap occurs because of a transaction in the previous day that has not been executed that's what I read so it's not a problem of cheating done by the broker, all brokers there are gaps

in my opinion the gap occurs because of a significant movement that occurs at the market time holiday, or on Saturday or Sunday so that there will be a gap on the opening day of the market later

The gap happens in my opinion because there is a very fluctuating movement that happens, when there is a news that is a high impact type, therefore must be

I do not know what happened actually in the gap but what I know if there is a gap there must be a transaction has not closed everything and therefore usually when there is a gap we fight the direction

the gap often makes the trader feel confused because it always occurs at the opening of an Open position, so we must be able to do a good system for the gap so we should learn the knowledge first

Gap is formed when there is extreme sentiment on the market, so that the bullish or bearish parties to a currency pair instantly dominate the market. Gap on Forex often occurs during publication of important news that has a big impact. In addition, often the gap appeared at the beginning of the week, if there was a fairly large incident on weekends after the market closure on Friday, so the compact market took action to one direction at the opening of the market on Monday.

GAP occurs when there is a very large movement with a very wide range when holidays on Saturday and Sunday, in my opinion like that

the gap occurs because of the buildup of buy and sell orders on the previous day that's what I read but I don't really understand the problem, it usually occurs at the weekly open

the gap is possible because the market has a reserve emphasis on buyers and sellers who have not been executed, there will be a high jump there later

GAP occurs in the market because there is high impact news or big news that occurs at the weekend, causing a jump in price that is visible on the trading chart.

Gap can occur may be due to significant movement on weekends when the market is holiday, and newly recorded on the chart when the market is open
