Shorting Today's GapUp - The "Correct Way"

Quote from mgabriel01:

Fading gaps by simply entering at the open worked 80% of the time in January

It worked less than 15% of the time in Feb

I hope it comes back - it was easy money in January


At what time do you enter your short? 9:30? 9:35? 10:00?

to fade the gap successfully you may have to set a stop at or near the size of the gap

if you are trading on a small account - that can be a big $ risk on any given day these days - cause the gaps are sometimes pretty big
