Gap-O-MaticGap-O-Matic checks whether there is a gap in a user-defined security or symbol and gives you alerts, targets for the gap and tracks the gap until it has been filled. In addition, you can disable or show plots, and change the gap threshhold to pick how big of gaps you want Gap-O-Matic to alert you to and which it should ignore.
A good use case, for example, is to use Gap-O-Matic to monitor a CME/CBOE such as "BTC1!" while trading a bitmex chart. You wont need to check or chart out gap areas. Gap-O-Matic will automatically draw in the gaps on your chart for you.

Bollinger Band Open Gap Alert V1This is the bare bones of what I'm trying to achieve through pine script. The purpose of the script is to:
1. On a 15m chart, calculate and plot upper & lower Bollinger bands and simple moving average of 20 periods. (DONE)
2. On a new day, when the first 15m candle of a session forms, I want to check if a) the low of the new candle is outside the upper Bollinger band (also known as an open gap up) or b) if the high of the candle is the outside the lower Bollinger band (also known as open gap down). In other words, I want to know if the Bollinger Bands are not touching the new candle's wicks/shadows. (DONE)
3. Alert me if the above happens. (DONE)
4. Run the indicator through an entire watch list. I'm not sure if that's possible, yet. (HELP)
For the above job, this is what I could come up with. I need guidance for the last step . And any suggestions for corrections or improvements would be greatly appreciated!
Simple Gaps as overlaySimple Gaps indicator as an overlay. Otherwise, identical to SImple Gaps which you can find here .

Simple overlay showing gaps.
I am open to critique and improvement proposals for all my scripts.
If you like it give it a thumbs up and remember:

... more important to be nice!"
Gap LineGAP LINE:
Plots the cumulative line of gaps to see extremes in psychology.
Plenty of Gap-UP's where the Open is higher than the previous bar's close get the market excited.
Plenty of Gap-DOWN's where the Open is lower than the previous bar's close get the market scared and depressed.
Look for the Gap Line to peak prior to an important peak in the market and vice versa. Look for a low in the Gap Line prior to an important low in the market.
Simple, but effective.
