CandelaCharts - Opening Gap (OG) 📝 Overview
The ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Opening Gap represents the price difference between the previous trading session's closing price and the current session's opening price. This gap serves as a key indicator of market sentiment and can offer valuable clues about the market's potential direction throughout the trading day.
A bullish Opening Gap forms when the market opens higher than the previous session's close, signaling strong buying interest or positive sentiment heading into the new session
A bearish Opening Gap occurs when the market opens lower than the previous session's close, reflecting heightened selling pressure or negative sentiment among market participants
The Opening Gap is significant as it often establishes the market's tone for the trading session. Accurately interpreting this gap enables traders to make informed decisions about when to enter or exit positions. Serving as a gauge of market strength or weakness, the gap provides a clear signal of whether the market is likely to trend upward or downward during the day.

crypto futures hourly scalping with ma & rsi - ogcheckershi to all lovable traders,
hereby i want to share a combination of trade ideas for scalping
i've chosen hourly timeframe
indicators used: moving averages and rsi
moving averages:
ema 3, ema 5, ema 7
sma 3, sma 5, sma 7
daily_ema_3, daily_ema_5
daily_ema_5, daily_sma_5
rsi:
rsi 7, rsi 14, rsi 26
daily_rsi_7, daily_rsi_14, daily_rsi_26
as per the analysis over moving average behavioral patterns & rsi movements, useful points are given below which will be helpful while choosing good entry points & exit points,
strategical points for LONG:
* when ema3 crosses above sma3 - green candles start to form
* it's followed by ema5 > sma5 and ema7 > sma7
* when ema3 crosses down sma3 - it's considered as an indication of exit
* if rsi supports then can wait for ema5 crossing down sma5
* as similar, when daily_ema_3 crosses above daily_sma_3, its an higher timeframe bullish indication, so the lower timeframe entries inside this higher timeframe is a sure shot confident entry
* for LONG always take entries when rsi_14 < 30 or 25 else check rsi_7 < 25 or below
* as along the above, bullish CANDLE patterns like bullish engulfing , morning star is been used for entry at lower levels
* so here i've used OPEN as rsi_source in majority
* exit points also indicated at high_rsi and moving average crossunders or reverse crossovers
* for SHORTING, the above said ideas can be used in viceversa
* inputs in the indicator were tailored for users needs so that you will enjoy the magics of customization
if i am wrong in anyways regarding the above indicator strategy, please forgive me and help me improve in this aspect by commenting.
after few more studies and analysis and mainly QUERIES & COMMENTS, i'm planning to backtest these strategies here in tradingview.
also if these strategies are coded in python, we can link it to Binance Futures Algo or Bot Trading.
