To name a gap we need to see where the gap appears:

Four types of gap:

Area gap: If the gap appears in the non trending area it is called area gap. stock might get a -ve break out.
Break out gap:If the gap appears above bullish break out area it is called Break out gap. It will have high volume.
Runaway gap:If the gap appears above the break out,and in the trending zone it is called runaway gap.
Exhaustion gap:The gap appears during the day (opened with a gap) and in the trending zone buy got filled same day or next day.
