NDOG/NWOG Indicator Overview
This indicator automatically plots Daily Opening Gaps (NDOG) and Weekly Opening Gaps (NWOG) on the chart, using distinct colors to differentiate them (light blue and yellow boxes, respectively).
- Daily Opening Gap (NDOG): This is the price difference between the closing price of the previous day and the opening price of the current day.
- Weekly Opening Gap (NWOG): This gap represents the price difference between Friday's closing price and Sunday's opening price.
These plotted zones act as magnets for the price, which often returns to "fill" the gap before continuing its trend or reversing.
Performance in an Uptrend
On a 4-hour timeframe, a Weekly Opening Gap (NWOG) is plotted with a yellow box on a chart like the USD/NZD. When the price returns to this gap area, it can find support and react strongly, initiating or continuing an uptrend. This demonstrates how a gap can function as a powerful support zone.
Performance in a Downtrend
Similarly, on a 4-hour chart of Silver/U.S. Dollar, a Daily Opening Gap (NDOG) is displayed with a light blue box. The price often returns to interact with this gap, which can act as a resistance level. After touching or filling the gap, the price can then resume its downtrend, validating the gap's role as a resistance zone.
