When Do Opening Gaps Fill? 

A member from MasterTheGap.com asked for my opinion of one of Trader Vic's (Vic Sperandeo) published trading strategies regarding "going with" (i.e. trading in the direction of) the opening gap if it has failed to fill in the first 15 minutes of the session.

It is a thought provoking idea that has some merit if applied to the right market. I decided to test the concept and some of the assumptions on the E-mini S&P 500 futures.

Check out my video on this topic - which also shows the optimal time to consider using a time-stop if fading the E-mini S&P or a correlated index like the Dow or Nasdaq futures:
