[AN] GapierA colored gap finder.
It colors a gap until it gets closed. It displays an info for the current opened gaps (range).
Allows to change the gap timeframe
Allows you to overlay gaps of other symbol on the current one
There are some assets that really like to fill the gaps. Using this indicator you can have a better understanding on where the price is heading (on the current trend).

2nd Day Stats / BACKTESTING TOOL//English version below
## Deutsche Version
Was passiert am 2. Tag, nachdem wir X % am ersten Tag zurückgelegt haben? Genau dies lässt sich sehr gut backtesten und die Erkenntnisse im Markt anwenden. Dieses Tool eignet sich besonders für kleinere Aktien (Small-Caps) oder Aktien, die am Tag der Quartalszahlen große Bewegungen zurückgelegt haben. Backtesting war selten so einfach.
## English version
What happens after a strong day 1 move? Use the custom input to test, what happened after a 10% move on day one. Change the day 1 move % and the number of years to backtest. It's that simple. The tool is especially helpful for small-cap traders and for stocks after earnings.
Gap Trader
Plot the most recent 20 gaps based on custom session info.
The session can be customized with a start time and an end time.
The previous open, high, low, close are only from the price during the session specified.
A gap line will stop printing the moment the gap is filled.
For CME futures, the session must be offset by one hour for Central time. I use the official cash close of 16:15 EST (yes, not 16:00) as this is the TRUE close when options go offline. Every day CME futures take a break between 16:15 - 16:30 EST for settlement, and then again from 17:00 - 18:00 EST.
To offset CME futures you must subtract an hour, the official NYSE hours for futures: 0830-1515, this translates to 9:30 AM EST - 4:15 PM EST.

MIND_THE_GAP: Locate gaps on all time frames. Alerts enabled. • Identify gaps on all time frames
• Ability to set gap sensitivity
• Daily gaps overlaid on intra-day time frames
• Horizontal bars indicate gap on the current time frame
• Circles indicate gap on the daily time frame
• Alerts enabled
Gap-O-MaticGap-O-Matic checks whether there is a gap in a user-defined security or symbol and gives you alerts, targets for the gap and tracks the gap until it has been filled. In addition, you can disable or show plots, and change the gap threshhold to pick how big of gaps you want Gap-O-Matic to alert you to and which it should ignore.
A good use case, for example, is to use Gap-O-Matic to monitor a CME/CBOE such as "BTC1!" while trading a bitmex chart. You wont need to check or chart out gap areas. Gap-O-Matic will automatically draw in the gaps on your chart for you.
Gap Measure PercentMeasures the gaps between bars - bullish or bearish - as a percent of the underlying's price.
My Simple Gaps with overlay (Bar and Candlestick Charts)updated screenshot with some narrative
this is a bar and candlestick chart gap identification tool
My Simple Gaps with overlay (Bar and Candlestick Charts)Can be used to identify gaps on bar and candlestick charts.
Bar graph gaps shown at top of screen, candlestick gaps shown on bottom of screen.
Simple Gaps for use on Bar ChartsThis script identifies when price gaps up and gaps down, represented by green and red box icons respectively.
Future enhancements to this script will work across Candle charts and will indicate the size of the script, perhaps with more prominent colours.
Please suggest improvements as you see fit. Thanks, and enjoy.

Katana Gaps Bounty Hunter Pro (Show Gaps of All Types) by RRBKatana Gaps Bounty Hunter Pro (KGB Hunter Pro, Gap Exterminator) by RagingRocketBull 2018
Version 1.0
This indicator shows/counts/filters gaps on a chart.
There are several versions: Simple, Pro, Advanced and Zones. This is the Pro version. The Differences are listed below.
- Simple: shows/counts gaps, changes color based on gap dir (2 colors), filters out price gaps within session, large gaps, and high volume gaps
- Pro: +shows all types of gaps, multi color, pro filters (full/partial/overlapping time, price, large, candle, volume, doji, weekend gaps within delta ranges)
- Advanced: +session times mask, show/count gaps only for last N bars, +min/max/filled gaps stats, dark mode
- Zones: +shows gaps as dynamic horiz zones
KGB Hunter Pro Gap Exterminator focuses on showing you all possible types of gaps in multiple colors. Gap theory states that price tends to return and fill the gaps,
so you can use it to collect the bounty. You can apply any combination of complex filters to narrow down search results i.e., find only all:
- type 3 gaps up with allowed wick-candle overlapping of up to 10% and
- gap size larger than 200 and
- with at least one of the candles larger than 100 and
- volume change at least 40 and
- spanning less than 2 bar periods and
- excluding weekend gaps
Features:
- highlights gaps using barcolor and plotchar chars (8 colors x 2 dirs)
- supports all 3 types of gap overlapping: full gap (no overlapping), wick-wick and wick-body overlapping up to a specified % of candle body
- finds all types of gaps with pro filters for price, time, large, volume, timerange, candle size, doji gaps
- individual show/hide flags for each gap/char based on gap type
- can show/hide gaps/chars based on gap dir
- changes color of gaps/chars based on gap dir/type, multi color gap type combos
- displays chars above/below bar based on gap dir
- can show/hide weekend gaps
- counts all filtered gaps
Colors:
Basically There are 2 gap types (Price, Time) x 2 directions (Up, Down) x 2 modifiers (Large, Volume), Volume Gap is a separate class with its own modifiers, so more accurately:
- (Price, Time) x 2 directions (Up, Down) x Large modifier
- (Price Volume, Time Volume) x 2 directions (Up, Down) x Large modifier
using a total of 16+1 colors or 8+1 base colors + transparency modifier
depending on settings you can highlight gaps using any multi color combo from just 1 to all 16 colors (+1 gray color for weekends).
basic gap = 1 base color with normal transparency
price,time = 2 base colors (including basic gap) with normal transparency (+1 color)
* up,down dir = +2 new base colors with normal transparency (including 2 base colors), with a total of 2*2 = 4 price/time base colors (+2 colors)
* large = same 4 base colors with vivid transparency modifier (+4 colors)
* volume = +2 new base colors with normal transparency, a separate class (+2 colors)
* volume * up,down dir = +another 2 new base colors with normal transparency (including 2 volume base colors), with a total of 2*2 = 4 volume base colors (+2 colors)
* volume * large = 4 volume base colors with vivid transparency modifier (+4 colors)
weekend_gap = gray (+1 color)
doji gap, candle gap, timerange gap = no special color, inherits color from parent gap type
for more details, please see the Gap Color Hierarchy comments in code
_________________________________________________________________________
You can find the following gap related terminology in literature: full, partial, extreme, breakaway, runaway/continuation, common, exhaustion gaps.
There are no exact rules to distinguish between them, so this can't be implemented.
When defining a gap it all boils down to how do you plot a gap, which points between adjacent candles do you consider a gap. Different sources apply different methodology
but in practice only 3 types of gap overlapping can exist:
- full gap (no overlapping),
- partial (wick-wick overlapping) and
- extreme partial (wick-body overlapping up to a specified % of a candle body)
All these types are supported in this script. The only possible remaining option is candle-candle overlapping which is not a gap by definition.
Many other script specific subtypes are also supported. Please see description of each gap type below and comments in code.
General display modes
- gap has 3 possible overlapping modes: full gap (no overlapping), wick-wick overlapping, wick-candle overlapping up to a specified % of candle body size (for mode 3 only)
the remaining candle-candle overlapping implies not a gap by definition
full gap mode will find the least amount of gaps, wick-candle - the most
- gap can be either price or time, up or down, and shown above or below the candles (gap chars)
- by definition, a price gap is a smaller subset of a time gap, a gap within current session with a price gap and zero time lag between bars.
Therefore timerange filter is useless for price gaps, but can still be applied.
On the other hand, all price gap filters can be applied to time gaps without any distinction.
- gap can have multiple modifier subtypes: (price|time) * (up|down) * (large? + volume? + doji? + timerange? + weekend?)
i.e. price + large + volume + doji or time + large + volume + timerange + doji + weekend
- the gap is always counted only once no matter how many subtype modifiers it has
- if the gap does not satisfy any of the applied flags/filters it is not shown/counted (no gap bars/chars are shown)
- gap color can depend on a combo of gap type/dir and modifier subtypes or can be shown in a single base color
- char color can only depend on gap dir (not type/modifiers) or can be shown in a single base color
- char position can also depend on gap dir (above/below) the gap candle. Alternatively you can pin chars to the top/bottom of the screen in UI Styles.
- change_by_type = true - uses gap type base colors (2 colors + optional modifiers, up to 8 colors if volume and/or large filters are enabled)
- change_by_dir = true - uses gap dir base colors (2 colors + optional modifiers, up to 8 colors if volume and/or large filters are enabled)
- both change_by_type and change_by_dir = true - uses both gap type and dir base colors (4 colors + optional modifiers, up to 16 colors if volume and/or large filters are enabled)
- both change_by_type and change_by_dir = false - uses a single base gap color (1 color)
- don't need that much colors - disable filters
- highlight bars has priority over individual gap flags, when it is false all gaps are hidden regardless of their corresponding flag settings (does not affect dim weekend gaps)
- show chars has priority over individual gap char flags, when it is false all char flags are hidden regardless of their corresponding flag settings
- price gaps are only shown/counted when show_price_gaps flag is true. The large or volume filters can be used to narrow down results further.
- time gaps are only shown/counted when show_time_gaps flag is true. The large, volume, and timerange filters can be used to narrow down results further.
- doji gaps are only shown/counted when show_doji_gaps flag is true. The doji candle size and other filters can be used to narrow down results further.
- show weekend gaps = true and dim weekend gaps = false - shows/counts weekend gaps
- show weekend gaps = true and dim weekend gaps = true - dims weekend gaps, doesn't show/count weekwend gaps
- show/dim weekend gaps do just that - show the gap if it happens on a weekend, not all weekends
- large gaps are only shown/counted when the large filter is enabled != 0. positive values 5 (>= 5), negative -5 (<=5) are used to switch between <>
- volume gaps are only shown/counted when the volume filter is enabled != 0. positive values 5 (>= 5), negative -5 (<=5) are used to switch between <>
- timerange gaps are only shown/counted when the timerange filter is enabled != 0. positive values 5 (>= 5), negative -5 (<=5) are used to switch between <>
- candle size gaps are only shown/counted when the candle size filter is enabled != 0. positive values 5 (>= 5), negative -5 (<=5) are used to switch between <>
- candle size filter is the only filter with 2 arguments, use_and_for_delta to enable AND condition for the args (OR is the default)

LEGAL STUFF:
Risk Disclosure
Futures , forex, stock, crypto and derivative trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results
Hypothetical Performance Disclosure
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results
Gap HunterThis tool allows us to visually hunt for price gaps.
Here we consider 3 types of gaps in order to adapt the tool to diversity of trading styles:
Strict Gaps : A gap not filled with Candle Shadows.
Shadow Overlap and Close Price NOT Taken : A gap where shadows overlap and don't take previous close.
Shadow Overlap and Close Price Taken : A gap where shadows overlap and take previous close.
DAX GAPSIf you are interested in trading gaps in DAX, then DOW plotted in DAX's trading hours, will help you know whether the smoothed candle was a gap or not. Use a different script to plot yesterday's closing price. This will help you see the target for the gap close. Let me know if you find it helpful or not!
