Tim- I want you to know that your prezo was superb and exceptional. You handled the situation with grace and the upmost professionalism. Having created extensive DCF models with nested pivot tables in a past life I can appreciate the many hours of work to develop, calibrate and test the Wizard.
Hats off to you and the entire MTG gang! Over-deliver in terms of value is certainly an understatement. Good Gapping- Stephen

Scott, You nailed another one today. I was right there with you -except I did'nt have the grit to test yesterday's high. You market insight is inspirational. I am 12/13 trades as of today since 11/17/09. Best regards, Rob
January 14, 2010 | Rob
I absolutely love your approach to the markets. It solves the problem of the failures of indicator based trading while still allowing back-testing. The successful day traders I know, stick to 70% or better trades. Unfortunately that number is seat of the pants, or at best, they get it from their trading records. That doesn't do me any good. Without a hard mathematical edge, I'm not sure I can succeed at this. Thanks Much, Jason
January 13, 2010 | Jason
hey scott, thx a bunch for the webinar. very helpful. 100x better than one from another educator I attended today.

Hi Scott, I hope you had a great holiday season and things have started well for the new year. I believe now more than ever that signing up for the mentorship was a fantastic move. Thanks, Pradeep

Hi Scott, Thanks so much for your help. It is so refreshing to find someone honest, transparent, and helpful in the trading world. I am trading with you because my husband (Bigfoot, aka Michael) thinks more highly of you than anyone else out there -- and he's tried pretty much everything! Wishing you and your family a very happy and prosperous 2010, Teresa
January 11, 2010 | Teresa
Well, after thinking about your coaching program for week and recommending it to some struggling traders, I decided to take my own advice. but the position sizer really set me over the edge. its totally the coolest thing I've seen in the trading world since tradestation came out in the 80's. looking forward to your help. fred

hi Scott, thank you for all of your guideance it has really brought me to another level in my trading career!!! LOU
January 8, 2010 | Louis
Thanks much Scott, For what it is worth, I have been around the block as they say, (only a short block in the trading world), but I think you are doing a terrific job in the trading room. You have much more patience than I ever would. It is fun, and more importantly, educational to be there. Best to you and your family in the new year. Tom

Dear Scott, Happy New Year! 2009 was an excellent year for me. I moved to trading full time after about 3 years of learning to trade and have developed a very sound trading style that suits me well. Moving to full time trading (and improving my skills sufficiently) has given my the opportunity to now manage some significant size accounts in 2010, >$1million. I will be including gap trading as a component of the trades taken in these accounts. Approx 2-3yrs of trading the gaps under your guidance has given me the confidence to do this so thank you.
Thanks again for the support, trading is the best business I know of and you have been a part of me achieving what I sometimes doubted was possible.....Regards, Steve
January 4, 2010 | Steve
Happy New Year, I wanted to follow-up with you regarding the Understanding Index Futures webinar. I thought Tim did a wonderful job of presenting the information clearly and pulling the information together. Thanks, Dwayne
January 1, 2010 | Dwayne
Hey Scott: I was an early member (year + ago) and have been busy with a few startups so i haven't been trading much. I've continued to get your emails and am impressed with how far you have taken your site and business in just a few years. Congrats! Happy new year, Mike
January 1, 2010 | Mike
Hi Tim,
Just an update from a grateful student. I finished Dec. at + 5% on my account. Very pleased, to say the least. I am trading the /ES on ThinkorSwim. Thank you for your help, it's made a huge difference. Best in the new year. David
December 31, 2009 | David
Hi Scott, Kudos to a great website and parting of knowledge to everyone. Joe
December 30, 2009 | Joe
Scott, Been trading using your filters and a sprinkle of my discretion since 11/17. Since then there have been eight trade days I've faded the ES on recommended occasions per the morning advisory. Of those 6 filled or extended filled, one was a loser (yesterday's trade- a scratch for me) and one I closed out on 12/15 for a two tick bump on the plus side. So overall I'm six for eight $2,245. to the plus side on 25K account. Phenomenal results. Thank you and I wanted to wish you and the family a very happy, healthy and prosperous holiday and new year. Best regards, Rob
December 23, 2009 | Rob
A few lines to wish you Merry Christmas and a Happy new year and to THANK YOU for the great jobs you guys do in the room every day. All the best, Jaime

Hi Scott, Thank you for all your hard work on gaps. I am a subscriber and love your work. Irma
December 16, 2009 | Irma
Scott, I am four for four on the trade days and one for two on the No Trade days since 11/17. Overall up 5% on the account balance for the period. Many thanks for all your sage advice. Rob

Hi Scott, Thanks so much. I have survived my first year. You and our room has boosted me to the winning side. Gary

Scott, I respect and admire your discipline. When you're not feeling 100%, you loose an edge. Have a good weekend! Emery

Hello Scott... And as always thank you for the Gap System it has really grouded my style of trading and has made me very sucessfull over the last 12 months im up 70% on my account and i have not had 1 losing month... Lou
December 11, 2009 | Lou
Greetings Scott, Thanks. I appreciate all the content that you provide and have learned a lot from your gap wraps and the guides. Definitely a quality service/product. Bill
December 10, 2009 | Bill
No problem Scott, thanks for letting me know. I also thought you'd like an update on how I'm doing, I've only been trading one contract but have profited over 2,000 since November 18th. I'm still amazed at how easy it is. Thanks again!
December 10, 2009 | Pradeep
Just wanted to again thank you for coming to our meetup last night. The presentation was very helpful to me. In particular, I really appreciated you sharing the details of your life's story, and how you did some soul searching and figured out what fit all your values. I also very much identified with a few aspects of your trading style, including the time / lifestyle element of your strategy design.
December 10, 2009 | Dave
This is the first testimonial I have ever given to any product or service. I am so glad that after hearing you speak in Pasadena last June, I decided to give your service a try. As a daily member in the Live Trading room, I find the information you provide exceptional, and have definitely increased my day trading skills, though I still have a long way to go. I'm particularly impressed with your transparency, openness, and honest straight talk. No question goes unanswered in the trading room. Trading the opening gap has achieved the consistency I never had using other short-term trading strategies - 18 winners in the last 25 trades since October 1st. I plan on being a member for a long time. Marty
December 9, 2009 | Marty
Hi Scott: I have just joined MTG, I am enjoying the results of all your hard work. Thanks Mike

Hi Scott, I've also enjoyed our sessions and look forward to keeping in touch; the mentorship exceeded all my expectations and have the utmost respect for your open and honest way of teaching and doing business. It is obvious how much you enjoy teaching and I think that's what made learning so easy and enjoyable. Pradeep
December 1, 2010 | Pradeep
Thanks Scott,I have gained so much from the chat room over these months that i try to hang for an hour even with no trade. its always amazing how much there is in this very basic simple stratagy of fading the gap. fred
December 1, 2009 | Fred
Hi there-- Hope you are coming to NYC Traders Expo Feb 2010. I heard your talk last Feb. and it was the most valuable talk of the entire Expo--I became a subscriber. Hope to have a chance to say hello to you there. Sharona
November 17, 2009 | Sharona
Hi Scott, I also thought you'd like to hear that I had my first successful gap trade this morning, a great feeling. Pradeep
November 17, 2009 | Pradeep
Thanks Scott; I appreciate you ponying up for my mental lapse. You know, of course, most internet moguls would have kept the money. Seriously though, you’re such a standup guy, it’s really quite impressive. Best,Evan

Hi Gap Geeks, Your service is exceptional and I plan on being a member for years to come. Thanks, Michael
November 16, 2009 | Michael
I am presently not a member as of yet but have hopes to join very soon. This e mail is not about questions or etc. I in honesty did not know you at the last expo and have hi hopes to meet you then and hope to share some smiles when I tell you that I am a member and am allowing myself to make some GAP GREEN. Ok even from a present non member I thank you for your sharing, humor and honesty.
November 15, 2009 | Sam
I am enjoying the room and appreciate your work. Sorry about your execution error today. I will spare you all of my similar experiences. Anyway, thanks again for you "odds in your favor" approach, your honesty, and you "usual" equanimity when taking a loss. This has helped me be not so fearful of a little draw down. As you say, you have to risk something to make something, or something to that effect. Take good care, Tom
November 13, 2009 | Tom
I really enjoyed the book. I will be going your trading room shortly. I really appreciate all the information you freely give out. You have built some great research. Thanks,Tyson
November 13, 2009 | Tyson
I thought you ran a good trading room. I appreciated your openness and honesty as it related to your trades, and how you handled your winners as well as losers. And while our trading styles and signals are different, I definitely liked your methodical (and statistical approach) to you trading. Being a math guy, I'm definitely drawn to the probabilities and testing. I also wanted to say Happy Veterans Day. Thank you for your service to our country.
November 11, 2009 | Jeff
Must say I am very impressed by your site. As I said I have an automated strategy which I will share the details with you. I have to go to work at the moment, but over the next couple of days I will give you a description of it and show you the tradestation equity curve...as I would love to hear your thoughts.
November 10, 2009 | Max
As a side note, I did end up renewing my subscription today after trying to fade the gap myself. I tried to fade this morning's gap but without your guides I felt naked not knowing the odds. After quickly being down about -2/-3 pts I didn't like what I was feeling and promptly renewed my subscription and saw the horrible odds I had traded into.
November 9, 2009 | SH
I enjoy your work, keep up the good job.
November 9, 2009 | Paul
Thanks for sharing you failures Scott, you’re awesome! And wow, nice recovery day trade! I look forward to renewing my membership someday soon. scott
November 3, 2009 | Scott
your honesty about your trades is the best research, causes us to prepare and take nothing for granted...thanks
October 29, 2009 | Sam
Please thank Scott for the webinar last night. A lot of it was a refresher for people with subscriptions who read the book already but it was very interesting and Scott is always a great speaker. Thanks again.
October 2, 2009 | T.I.M.
Hi Scott, Firstly let me thank you for the excellent service that you provide. It gave me the impetus I needed to develop my own Gap systems for the FTSE and the Russell and so far performance has been good. Gap trading if perfect for my personality due to the limited time you need to be at the screen when the markets open, I am very grateful to have come across your site and have learnt from someone with so much integrity. When you have your money management service up and running perhaps you could send me some information. Thanks for the inspiration.
October 20, 2009 | Angus
Hi Scott, I really appreciate all the work that you do and I believe you are one of the few people out there that is so transparent with their trading and willing to share so much information. I am watching pretty much all your video wrap ups that you release as I use very similar gap strategies and I look at the same set ups. Once again, I appreciate all the work that you do and I appreciate even more the fact that you are willing to share it with so many people. Yours, Dimitri
October 13, 2009 | Dimitri
Scott, I just want to thank you for your introducing me to gap trading and for the way the trading room is run. I have found that gap trading is the clearest, least ambiguous and for me the simplest and most profitable form of day trading. The trading room is run in a professional yet comfortable manner with no wild egos on the part of either the facilitator or the participants. For me it's simply great! Thanks again, Frank
October 7, 2009 | Frank
Thanks for a great gap trading service.
October 3, 2009 | Michael

Hello Scott, Am enjoying you Masterthegap website and your expertise on the eminis.I am a retired US Air pilot living and started trading after I retired.Have had a lot of difficulty,but starting to come together and you are very helpful as I love to trade the minis. I was a Navy man,but am really impressed at the quality of the Army guys. Will look forward to working with you in the future.

Scott, I think you are doing a great job with the site, including adding on additional markets and services. You are one of the few honest people I have encountered in the business. Thanks, Glenn

Hi Scott, I'm having a good time in the trading room and I want to say thanks. Over time I'm sure it will translate into more trading profits. Today was a great trading day!
August 30, 2009 | Hal
I'm an experienced trader (over 12 years full time) who uses your offering in somewhat unorthodox way - I do take some of the trades but I mostly listen in for real time help in handling gaps for a few of my larger swing-trading positions already in play. You clearly know what you are doing and are doing it well, openly and in a friendly fashion... who wants to listen to an inexperienced, secretive grouch at 9:15 in the morning? :-) Take care, all the best, keep up the good work! John
August 30, 2009 | John
Thanks a lot Scott, I appreciate your generosity here and as displayed in other ways on MTG.
August 28, 2009 | Phil
scott have been using r-1 as a place to fad these gap ups..once they can't stay above r-1 they work...thanks for this tidbit. good liuck and thanks again..reALLY HAS HELPED..SAM
August 28, 2009 | Sam
Last night I viewed your prerecorded webinar on Gaps. I just wanted to say that I was very impressed with the amount of material you have included in your site as well as all the back testing you have done. This is certainly more than most people have done on the subject.
Again, I just wanted to say how impressed I was with the details you have provided on your methodology!
August 23, 2009 | Michael
You amaze me with your willingness to share. I think it's a good thing and will inure to your benefit over time. Hal
August 16, 2009 | Hal
Keep Up The Great Work! I have found your information to be excellent & have recommended you before. I thank you for your quality services & send you good wishes for continued success. Good Trading. Sincerely,Simcha

I really apperciate your site and your prompt replies. So far, I have been able to consistently make money.

Hi Scott,
I am at my biannual anniversary with Master the Gap, and I am very pleased with all aspects of what you offer. Today’s events made me think of a slight spin on the saying, "I'd gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today." I received my 3 month Master the Gap bill, while my IB account increased over $5500 with today’s trade. The transparency you offer is something completely unique to my +12 years of trading.
While you strive to teach us to fish (in lieu of serving us catfish and hushpuppies), I want to support the fact that you also personally serve up the feast a couple of times a week. Firstly, your real-time calls immediately create respect for you and trust in your methodology. What better way to calm the nerves of newbies? Secondly, by explaining the subtle nuances of each trade’s unique characteristics, you are acting as a personal mentor to many aspiring traders. Cheers! Evan
August 13, 2009 | Evan
Chris, thanks a lot. You guys run a great business, very professional, always straight forward and very quick and helpful with your responses! Say hello to Scott, Harry
August 13, 2009 | Harry
Hi Scott just wanted you to know that information in the right hands can be quite a powerfull and profitable ..... I am contining to do very well with the skills that i have learned and the addition of your system and information.... Thanks and keep up the good work!!! LOU
August 13, 2009 | Lou
Scott, Just a note to say your gap expertise was extremely impressive the last 2 days. Yesterday's goal of having at least 1 pt of opportunity saved us from a loser. Also today your recognition of the patterns (hanging man??) got us a good winner. Nice job, Ken
August 6, 2009 | Ken
Scott, I just purchased and read you book on Gaps, and it is very informative - thanks for making Gaps easier to understand. Thanks.
August 2, 2009 | Bud
Hi Scott another winning month using a combination of price guides and gap plays, this makes 4 months straight. A tough month for gap plays but with the help of your price guides my winning streak continues 35 points this month... Thanks and keep up the good work!!!!
August 1, 2009 | Louis
Scott, Thanks for getting back to me. I do enjoy your methodology and the "nuggets" I recieve by being a member of Master the Gap. It is an incredible site. Take care, Dan
July 27, 2009 | Dan
Dear Scott. Last year, I lost XX% of my total asset from investment in mutual funds. Then I retired from my medical practice, started to learn day trading. I went through three day trading schools, joined three chat rooms, and attended more than 100 day trading lectures...
Lately, I saw your presentations from Money Show, found you have much more scientific and statistical data than any one I know. I joined you membership a few weeks ago. I love it, it made more money for me for sure...your program is safer than buy and hold. Thank you. Kevin
July 22, 2009 | Kevin
Scott, thanks for your great site. Thought you'd be interested: I sometimes fade the gap when you don’t (when the probabilities are high). I use the Gap Guides in June to go 8/8 and make about $11k trading 6-8 contracts. I use a a little bigger stop than you (7-8 pts in the ES) and never adjust the stops/targets. I’ve found it best to trade full size on all of my gap plays – even when you don’t. Keep up the great work. Regards, Dave
July 6, 2009 | David
Scott just wanted to tell you that i used your price guide this morning and went long at 882.50 and scalped 3 points... I think using your price guides in combination with my technical trading style that i learned from Linda Raschke is going to make for a very successful year..... My last two months ive had 35 trades 29 winners 5 losers and 1 scratch...Profit Factor for May 5.50 Profit Factor for June 10.0 Unbelievable
July 6, 2009 | Louis
Hi Scott, I just thought I'd drop you a message to let you know how the system has been working out for me thus far. Since I started my trial on 5/29, the performance has been as follows: * 5 gap trading days, 11 gap trades (mostly SPY/DIA/QQQQ) * 10 winners, 1 loser * PF: 7.33 * R (Profit per dollars risked): 40% Granted this is a small sample size, but thus far I think the system has proven itself to be very sound. The low R was initially troubling. But given that we're selecting trades with higher historical win % and PFs, the extra risk is justified. Thanks,Gregg
June 16, 2009 | Gregg
Hi Scott, I have been trading the Gap with your service for about 2.5 months and I've had some rough times (April) but also some good times May and June :-) so overall I am enjoying the service. I especially like that you are numbers oriented and try to take the subjectivity out of trading as much as possible.
June 15, 2009 | Rubin
Chris, i'm very very happy with the service and i'll be continuing with the service for a long time. thanks, Javier
June 14, 2009 | Javier
Hi Scott; Can you stand a little boasting about your mentorship. I'm up $4877 for trading the three days after we finished the training. I took the gap today with an extended goal of one point. Three cars for $572 per car. I enjoyed working with you on a one-on-one basis and I think the mentorship was perfect for me. Regards, Hal
June 10, 2009 | Hal
Thanks for keeping up with the trading room, especially while traveling, doing mentorships, and on west coast time. You’re my hero. Sincerely, thanks for all the help. The mentorship has been really changed the way I’ll trade from now on. I can’t wait to see my system in action!
June 5, 2009 | Isaac
I have subscribed to many rooms and services over recent years and yours is one of the few that seems to have real merit and complete integrity. I really like your approach. With best regards, Tony

I'm a new subscriber to the service. I think the info and analysis is great, keep up the hard work!best, Patrick
June 2, 2009 | Patrick
You are very helpful and I really appreciate the attention. also love your service and the morning briefings.
thanks, Travis
May 14, 2009 | Travis
Scott, before fully committing to trading the ES I reviewed your 16 month track record that was posted on the old site and followed you with small size for a while as well. Once I believed in it, I had no trouble trading along with you. I find that you are always open and honest on the site and in one-on-one conversation. The best traders usually are. Thanks.
April 16, 2009 | Isaac
First time in your trading room this am. Very impressed with your service. I have found lots of services with little to no data backing up their methods. Yours is one of the few that has that. easy way to separate out what has value and what does not.
April 9, 2009 | Ken
Your ES price guide was very helpful to me today, Scott! Just thought you'd like to know.
April 1, 2009 | Bob
I appreciate your services and the effort you put in. Keep up the great work. And, by the way, I really appreciate the addition of the YM and others, give me a better feel for the overall quality of the fades, and a selection, as I find myself trading the YM as often now as the ES.
March 19, 2009 | Ed
Scott,
I finished your e-book about 2 weeks ago and wanted to say well done Scott. It's odd, its not that I learned something new that I had to do to change my gap trading but I learned what I should not do and the epiphany has been very helpful. After I teach myself to fish for a few months I look forward to trying out your Master the Gap forum. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my emails Scott.
March 2, 2009 | David
Hi Scott - I am very happy to have come across your site and am definitely inspired to set up my own system. Pity I didn't run across your site a year ago!! Just ordered historical data on the Russell today to do some testing when I get back. I've being trying so hard to make a go at day trading for the past 2 years and having learnt a lot, I still feel it could be another 2 years!! I've come to the conclusion that I really don't want to spend my life behind a monitor all day! Trading gaps certainly seems like a great way to pay the bills and stll maintain some flexibility in your life. Thanks once again for such a great service and all the hard work you have put in.
February 27, 2009 | Angus
Scott, I find that these probabilities really do work long term - I think that's the key - kind of tough to judge over a month or so, although I've not had a negative month since last June. Thanks for all you do.
February 25, 2009 | Matt
You do a great job Scott. Please know that I, and I am sure you chat room regulars, appreciate the effort you take to help others.
February 23, 2009 | Ed
Your ES price guide was very helpful to me today, Scott! Just thought you'd like to know. Enjoy your nice long weekend!
February 13, 2009 | Bob
The information in the book "understanding Gaps" is tremendous, it goes way beyond anything I had ever heard or read on Gaps. The book is easy to read, and very informative. If you plan on trading Gaps, you should read this book!
February 9, 2009 | Sean
Scott, instead of emailing you I thought you might appreciate a plug on your website. Even though I am not finished with your mentorship, I’ve already used the Gap Fader tool to make money. I back-tested the best size stop to use on one of my favorite stocks and risked 44 cents. It also told me to hold beyond the prior close for a bigger target. And that is what I did. Result: 67 cents of profit per share in one day, and best of all I was in and out in 10 minutes. THANK YOU!! I can’t wait to learn more. Randy
February 6, 2009 | Randy
Hi Scott,
In just a short period of time, your signals have prevented me from taking trades I would have clearly lost money on. As you have stated, the key is taking the gaps that have the best chance of working, and your system is a great filter to use even for experienced gap traders!
Thanks! Leigh
January 22, 2009 | Leigh
I respect what you are doing and am positive that you have an edge. You are definitely a class act and I respect your integrity above any adviser in the industry.
January 19, 2009 | Picky
Scott, i'm very happy with my trading results. With the help of your site and Otis signals the results have been great! In this business full of "get rich quick" schemes it's very good to find a real system based on probabilities and results. Thanks for your hard work and thanks for your help!
January 13, 2009 | Javier
You have created the best educational-mentor combination I have experienced in 18 years of looking at everything. If a person wants to see what it takes to be a "real" trader, I suggest your service. Its affordable and has a real time track record to back it up. thanks for your efforts.
Scott: I just wanted to say that I enjoyed your Active Trader article "Opening Gap Locations" in the December 2008 issue. Good job and thanks for writing it.
December 28, 2009 | Tom
October 17, 2008 | Fred
You are very helpful answering emails quickly and in detail … one of the more honest trading educators out there and seem to want to help out traders … keep up the great work
October 5, 2008 | Alvin
I've been a member here now for about 3 months and have been very happy with this service. This method is great as a stand alone (with excellent results by the way) or to supplement your own gap entry method. Either way, the research on the site and Scott's record speak for themselves. They're both excellent!!! Otis rocks!!!
September 12, 2008 | Matthew
Last Sunday I was organizing all my notes since April 2008, every trade that I did, I took a note and explained why I took that setup, now I exactly know which ones are winners, and which ones are losers.
I won in most of the gap trades, I am taking the gaps when Scott recommended them and when his recommendations agree with my analysis... and since April, I only lost in two gap plays. Sometimes, when Scott recommended the gap play I did not take it, but every time that I followed his recommendations, and my analysis, I won, except for two trades.
July 22, 2008 | Alejandra
Anyone planning SnP gap trades will find the nightly gap map and database to be very useful. Avoidance of BLUD trades is invaluable.

Gap Guy has created the best "opening gap" back tested system with comprehensive statistical data available... I have used his system and data to create my own gap system that has return amazing results. Cash in the BANK RESULTS!!! This system is so easy and profitable I reorganised my trading business plan to allocate 50% of trading funds to the Daily Gap...
I recommend anyone day trading to use this valuable resource to trade Gaps!

Your backtesting-intensive approach to gap trading is the best I have seen. As someone who primarily trades equities, I have benefited greatly from your daily commmentary. I like the fact you're less concerned with win rate than you are with profit expectancy and money management. You also project a confidence and honesty and humily that really sets you apart. Thanks for your service and keep up the great work!

Scott, Thanks for the great room. Your chat helped me to make 3 out of 3 successful plays today on the ES. Your techniques and descriptions helped me feel confident about the execution and also effected high percentage winning. You have a lot of research you have done that has supported the decisions, as you frequently explain.

Okay...I had to add a new testimonial after today (2/14). I had covered all of my short ES on the gap play but then you said there was a potential for a break down below the day's low. So...I re-entered a short and picked up 4 more points. I wouldn't have thought of such a trade without your email alert---thanks again!

Gap Guy, Played the gap from the dentist office this morning, all from my treo, read the gap guy "today's Gap Play", entered my order with a target and a stop, had my teeth cleaned, then checked the results , +8.5 points on 2 contracts - best trip to the dentist ever! Thanks again.

Gap,
One of the great value-added features of your site is that in some cases the target is well beyond a simple gap fill. On 1/9, the gap itself was small but your target was several points away. I took it and made 5.75 ES points where normally I would have skipped the trade. The trade also worked because of your advice about using a wide stop that day. On 1/17, I made 7.25 again because your target was beyond the simple gap fill price. You provide more than one way to win at this game--good job!

Scott,
I'm very pleased with my results using your gap guidance. And the site and your services are getting better and better, too. Thanks for putting up your results. Would be good to see actual totals and cumulatives there.
Thanks! I can only imagine how much work you've put in on this.

Gap Guy, your site is a wonderful resource for both new and experienced traders. Trading gaps is a great opportunity to apply a mechanical system and you've done a great job of explaining how you apply your backtesting. I keep learning new things about trading from both your daily blog and also your explanations of how you play the gaps. Thanks for taking the time to develop this site!

Gap Guy,
I am still developing my Gap trading system, and your site has been a HUGE asset. I reference your site every morning and love the email updates. I am truly impressed with the amount of data you have compiled and studied and coverted into a very profitable trading system for gaps on the ES. Your site is the best source on the web for gap trading. Keep up the good work and the new site looks awesome!

Hi,
I recently discovered your website and noticed the apparent detail you have included with your trading method. While the gap method is something I have seen before this is first time I have seen in gone into with this much detail. Thank you!
