Gaps are magnets. If you’ve been trading price action long enough—especially using Al Brooks’ methodology—you know that open gaps act like unfinished business for the market. They pull price back, either to close completely or to act as support/resistance. But how do you track these gaps efficiently without cluttering your chart?
That’s where the Zen Live Gap Indicator comes in.

What It Does
This indicator automatically highlights breakout gaps between bars—both in front and behind—and marks them on your chart. If price later comes back and fills a gap, the line is crossed off, keeping your chart clean. This lets you:
✅ Identify magnets in real time – Know where price is likely to get pulled.
✅ Gauge strength – Which gaps are still open? Which ones got tested and rejected?
✅ Set test targets in trading ranges – In a tight range, knowing whether gaps above or below are stronger helps you anticipate breakouts.
How It Helps You Trade
- In trading ranges, open gaps show where price is likely to test next.
- In trending markets, watching which gaps stay open helps confirm strength.
- In reversals, seeing unclosed gaps behind price gives clues about whether the reversal is strong or just a pullback.
The key is not just spotting gaps, but tracking which ones hold and which ones fail. That’s what separates noise from useful information.
