Nasdaq trade closed at target with $1820 profit. CLX 4 contracts currently eating up all of that but I'm still long view on oil.

I mean that I went through the maintenance 1 hour gap, which would be 6am to 7am Korea time.

What benefits do you see of holding through this period? Do you see an advantage or edge over exiting the position before close and entry after reopen? Just curious on your thoughts and experiences with this.

With the volatility that the close and open bring, I wasn’t sure if you find advantageous fills (for example place a limit and a wick might fill it), and how the risk of the wild swings that sometimes occur are handled
