Shoulda woulda coulda. One thing you'll grow to figure out is you can't be right all the time, but you should really learn to kill your losers...

true, you should never "meet" a margin call(although i guess you guys have your broker to babysit and force liquidate, so thats not really a concern in spot FX), but to be on a margin call for 24 hours on a trade that will expire in less than 24 hours, is just part of playing the game... im only margin call due to over extended euro trades(with multiple legs) that are profitable as well as their risk being defined -and not every span margin calculation from a clearinghouse can properly tally risk and time premiums when determining VAR or even Total value at risk - therefore my trading power is negative.. It was more about being tied up in one market while missing the BIGGER OBVIOUS trade that is the blower.. the only solution to this is to have more funds, nothing else...

..this aint my first rodeo...

becareful, not all gaps gets filled.... only Most... maybe 90% of the gaps? intervention gaps can be quite tricky since hedge funds who sold down there may have already taken the loss and leave......

Contrary to the GAP fetishes admired by many on this site, Some GAPS are NEVER MEANT to be filled.

If you are to spot or reference a Gap, the first thing to do is determine what kind of Gap it is:

Types of gaps

There are four different types of gaps, excluding the gap that occurs as a result of a stock going ex-dividend. Since each type of gap has its own distinctive implication, it is very important to be able distinguish between such gaps.

 

  1. Breakway gap : It occurs when prices break away from an area of congestion. When the price is breaking away from a triangle (Ascending or Descending) with a gap then it can be implied that change in sentiment is strong and coming move will be powerful. One must keep an eye on the volume. If it is heavy after the gap is formed then there is a good chance that market does not return to fill the gap. When the price is breaking away on a low volume, there is a possibility that the gap will be filled before prices resume their trend.

  1. Common gap : It is also known as area gap, pattern gap or temporary gap. They tend to occur when trading is bound between support and resistance level on a short span of time and market price is moving sideways. One can also see them in price congestion area. Usually, the price moves back or goes up in order to fill the gaps in the coming days. If the gap is filled, then they offer little in the way of forecasting significance.

  1. Exhaustion gap signals end of a move. These gaps are associated with a rapid, straight-line advance or decline. A reversal day can easily help to differentiate between the Measuring gap and the Exhaustion gap. When it is formed at the top with heavy volume, there is significant chance that the market is exhausted and prevailing trend is at halt which is ordinarily followed by some other area pattern development. An Exhaustion gap should not be read as a major reversal.

  1. Measuring Gap : Also known as Runaway Gap, a Measuring gap is formed usually in the half way of a price move. It is not associated with the congestion area, it is more likely to occur approximately in the middle of rapid advance or decline. It can be used to measure roughly how much further ahead a move will go. Runaway gaps are not normally filled for a considerable period of time.
  2. Creampie Gap Fill - well.... im sure you can use your imagination

A question Dr Doom. Why instead of buying the dip, you shorted? Because of the overall downtrend?
