Gapped up at the open (3%+) (UK)

A technical stock screen computed nightly from daily-close price history (market data). Selection is deterministic — a company appears only when its stored indicator meets the screen's rule; nothing is estimated.

12 companies in the catalog currently match this technical screen. Leading the list, Atalaya Mining (ATYM.L) is opened 6.5% above the previous session's close (previous close 8.79), and had not traded back through it by the close.

What is a gap up?

A "gap" is the part of a move that happens while the market is shut. The overnight gap is simply the opening price measured against the previous session's closing price: if a company closes at 100 and opens at 105, it gapped up 5%, and no trade happened anywhere in between. Gaps are usually the market repricing something that was announced out of hours — results, a trial readout, a bid — which is why they cluster around earnings dates rather than appearing at random.

How do I read the Gapped up at the open (3%+) (UK) screen?

This screen lists companies whose most recent session opened at least 3% above the previous close, largest gap first, and says whether price traded back down through that previous close before the session ended. That second fact matters more than it looks: measured across our catalog, about a third of gaps of 2% or more are closed again during the very session that opened them. A gap describes a session that has already opened. It is not a signal, it says nothing about the next session, and nothing here is advice.

Data: daily-close price history, recomputed nightly. Every figure is shown with its as-of date on the company page; a company without enough price history for this indicator is excluded, never estimated.

2 covered companies were not evaluated for this screen because their price series end on or before an earlier session (AEP.L, MEGP.L), at least 0 trading sessions behind the null session the rest of the catalog carries. A technical signal is a claim about the present, so it is not asserted from a series that stops before it. Those companies keep the readings they have on their own page, with the as-of date they were computed from.

Last updated 2026-08-05 — this screen recomputes nightly from daily-close prices, so its members change over time.
