Understood, but with my broker it has already been filled as you can see. {image}
the gap is at 63666 area look lower. Here is an example of gap fill dynamics that just happened and you can see my explorer i long the play as well. Great for scalps, sometimes runners too.

what broker are you using? Pepperstone is really good with showing gaps. Exness is not so good

So, I'm watching this gold monthly right now. I think any close below 2300 should make a pretty serious bearish candle. The other scenario is that gold starts to make moves after bouncing off this area and straightens up this monthly bar, so it's not bearish. It is going to be very interesting to watch the close.

67645 should be where bitcoin starts to turn bearish, maybe

Great question! The size of the candle can indicate whether it's a good opportunity for scalping and catching a runner. For the best results, I recommend using the hourly chart. The 4-hour chart might not catch the scalp, and the 30-minute chart may not be defined enough. If you can catch the candle or the gap fill, you'll likely make the scalp.

To maximize your success, consider opening two positions: one for scalping and one for a potential runner. After closing the scalp, set the runner to a +1 pip profit. Avoid setting your positions to break even, EVER, as it doesn't significantly impact your overall performance. Always give yourself at least one pip; over time, these small gains can add up.

Regarding gold, I'm not certain about the current bounce. As I'm not currently invested in it, I will have to watch for the next move.

Take her down to the gap fill, see what happens, then 59-60.

This whole area is ripe for shorts to at least the gap fill, I expect lower after that zone is breached.
