recommendations for avoiding gaps

[Jennifer]

most of the times when market closes on friday and when it opens back on monday there is a gap
so iis there quick and simple way to avoid this gap?

@Jennifer

close your ea and all of your positions on friday , and open the ea on monday when the market has become more normal

or you can filter with spread , so you only trade when the spread is low and controlled

sure there are ways , we can compair candles closing on candle 1 and open price on candle 0 , if they are not aline you have a gap , candle 0 open price is 1 pip </> candle 1 close price

@timmyhanke Ok, i dont know anyone who can see in to the future.
Example:

Short trade
Friday - EUR/USD close at 1,900
Monday - Opens at 2,00, what are you suppose to do about that?

a gap comes in a blink of an eye , so if the ea detects a gap it will do that in a tick , in that tick you can have that compairing condition to make so that the ea dosnt enter a trade there , bacause a gab does make every indicator go bananas aswell , so not to trade it , just to avoid it .
