 Hello, everyone, and welcome. My name is Melissa Armout. I am the Stock Swoosh. And today, I'm going to describe to you and explain to you, just in words, without looking at a chart what a gap is. Gap is G-A-P. It's a stock gap. So when a stock or the market or anything that trades in the US stock market gaps, it means that it's opening at a different price at 9.30 AM, which is when the US stock market opens, then it closes at 4 o'clock Eastern time, which is when the market closes. So that's what a gap is. So pretty much almost everything gaps every day, all right? Some things gap down, some things gap up, but it will be rare that a stock would close at $236.01 penny and then open the next day at 9.30 at $236.00 and a penny. However, that being said, the things that do gap usually have a reading on them that I'm looking for a watching where I can predict where the stock is going to go, where it's going to move, is buying going to come into the stock on the live day the following day when it gaps or selling going to come into the stock on the following day when it gaps. So that's what I'm looking for when I'm looking for gaps. So theoretically, to be very specific, most everything gaps every day, but not every gap is predictable that happens in the market. So I'm looking for the ones that are predictable and I use a rating system which I teach in a class called the Golden Gap course which I created to determine if the gap is going to get bought or sold off. And that's what a gap is. So that's today's simple lesson. If you have more questions, email me at Melissa at thestockswish.com.
