Gapping up simply means that the stock opens at a higher price than it closed at.

A stock gaps up when the range of the day is greater than the high trade of the previous day, thus leaving an open space or "gap" on the chart.
Many believe that the gap is important and the stock will eventually
move to close the gap.
