I make this as the worst gap-down for the NASDAQ. The data I keep for such checks only goes back to 1984, but todays gap down of -4.86% beat out 87-Oct-26 of -4.78%, a day that went on to a close-to-close down of -9%.

Recent big gap down was 00-Apr-05, but in that case the open was the low of the day.

She's a bouncin' hard now, but I think the fix was in when it did not make a better effort to fill the gap.

How would you folks classify this gap if it endures? Breakaway? Can't really be exhaustion can it, since it is not at a new bottom?
