Study session gaps is a source-backed research workflow for one exact exchange listing or a clearly stated market scope. It describes available evidence and never creates a recommendation or trade instruction.
Session Gap Research studies adjusted opening gaps, same-session fills and open-to-close behaviour for one exact listing over a selected number of completed sessions and a minimum gap threshold.
1. Confirm exchange and instrument. 2. Select the intended period or scope. 3. Read the as-of time, unit and native currency. 4. Inspect available rows. 5. Open supporting evidence. 6. Treat missing inputs as unavailable. 7. Save or compare only like-for-like evidence.
Illustrative only: over 60 completed sessions a listing can show 14 qualifying gaps above 0.5% of which 9 filled in the same session; that historical frequency is descriptive evidence, not a probability or forecast The example is not a live quote, forecast or expected result.
Higher, lower, positive and negative values retain the definition of the displayed field and period. A genuine zero is evidence; unavailable is missing evidence. No single field determines whether an instrument is suitable.
A genuine source-reported or calculated zero is displayed as 0. Unavailable (—) means verified evidence is absent, unsupported, stale or not computable; it is never silently changed to zero.
Coverage, reporting periods, stale observations, corporate actions, methodology changes and small samples can limit comparison. Never combine unlike currencies, scales, sessions or instruments without an explicit compatible basis.
Session calendars and adjusted-price provenance are venue-specific; incompatible or missing session evidence stays unavailable rather than approximated.
