GAP TRADING MT4 - Expert Advisor for trading on gaps. This strategy is very popular in the FOREX market - when a gap arises on the chart, then most often the price then closes it. Advisor rarely trades, mainly at the opening of a new week on Monday, so testing should be carried out over a large period of time.
