Understanding why these gaps form ⎊ often due to sudden news or liquidation events ⎊ helps in assessing the validity of the price move. If a gap is filled quickly, it suggests the move was a temporary overreaction.

If the gap holds, it may indicate a strong, sustainable trend. It is a nuanced tool that combines order flow data with structural price analysis.
