What BTST Gap Capture Involves
Buy Today, Sell Tomorrow (BTST) is a specialized trading strategy that targets price gaps occurring between the 3:30 PM market close and the 9:15 AM next-day market open. SP Researchvia's BTST research filters Indian equities and stock options that display strong 3:15 PM institutional volume surges, positive news catalysts, and bullish option chain short-covering. Subscribers receive prompt signals at 3:15 PM with precise entry limits, opening target ranges, and protective stop-loss guidelines.
Target Audience & Trader Profile
Designed for active market participants, working professionals, and option traders who cannot monitor live price charts continuously throughout the 6-hour trading day. BTST allows traders to execute a single high-conviction trade in the final 15 minutes of the session and harvest gains right at market opening, minimizing screen time while maintaining active market exposure.
