# Gap + ORB + PDHLB (Experimental, Confidence: Low)

> **Status:** Experimental. **Confidence:** Low. This setup module is research-grade and not a final production signal.

This setup combines three intraday conditions:

* a regular-session opening gap beyond the previous day high or low
* a completed Opening Range Breakout window
* a later breakout beyond the opening range while price remains beyond the previous day level

It is designed for users who want to study gap continuation behavior after the market open.

## Long Setup

A long setup is considered when:

1. The regular-session open gaps above the previous day high.
2. The opening range completes.
3. Price later closes above the opening range high.
4. Price remains above the previous day high.

## Short Setup

A short setup mirrors the long logic:

1. The regular-session open gaps below the previous day low.
2. The opening range completes.
3. Price later closes below the opening range low.
4. Price remains below the previous day low.

## Typical Use Cases

* evaluate whether large opening gaps continue or fade
* compare long and short continuation behavior
* study target models such as `1r`, `2r`, end-of-day, or hybrid exits
* screen symbols for gap-and-breakout behavior

## Endpoints

* `GET /stats/setups/gap-orb-pdhlb/trades`
* `GET /stats/setups/gap-orb-pdhlb/summary`
* `GET /signals/gap-orb-pdhlb/check`

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://statalpha.gitbook.io/statalpha-docs/stats/gap_orb_pdhlb.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
