Understanding Gap Up Leaders

What is a Gap Up?

A gap up occurs when a stock opens significantly higher than its previous closing price, leaving a visible "gap" on the chart. This usually happens overnight due to earnings, news, or broader market events.

Why Does It Matter?

Large gap ups signal strong buying interest or a major catalyst. They can indicate momentum continuation — or a short-term overreaction that may partially fill back toward the previous close.
