This all began because, I read your a statement that there didn't need to be a whole book on Gap Trading, that it was like Day-Trading.
I understood this to mean that if you knew how to Day-Trade then trading gaps was not much different so you don't need a whole book on it.
Someone appeared to interpret your statement as you don't need a whole book on Gap-Trading and you don't need a whole book on Day-Trading, rather than if you've done the work to understand Day-Trading then Gap-Trading is an adjunct.
As for me I do not have a sufficient understanding of technical analysis to trade successfully by swing or by day, so I could not honestly say which is easier.
