I have read alot about trading the opening gap. I have also noticed that they tend to close the same day majority of the time. To learn this strategy, what will I need to look for? Should I fade at the open? What is the percentages of success? I do not normally trade the first 15 minutes but will be interested in applying a new tactic.
Why don't you backtest it and obtain the data yourself? The best way is to study it, test it, and devise your own trading methods.
