What the gap down is

Price opened below the previous candle's low. It jumped down between the two candles.

Imagine a shop that shuts at night. While it is closed, bad news spreads about a toy, so when the shop opens, the very first price is already below anything paid the day before. On a chart, a candle that starts below the bottom of the candle before it is called a gap down.
