What is up with the opening price

#1
What is up the high fluctuation in price of NIFTY (for example).
All my stops from after-market-orders got triggered at 09:15:01 AM (Hours:Minutes:Seconds) and at 09;15:02 AM the trading started from a price that is no way close to the price of NIFTY at 09:15:01 AM.

Anybody please please please help and tell me how can I avoid this?

The opening can be extremely volatile - and using stop losses to trade the open is not a good idea. Remember there may not be adequate liquidity right at the open, and if your stop loss is triggered, it could be disastrous!

Yes this is exactly what has happened. How could I have avoided it ?
