Gapology...simplistic question(s) - are all gaps created after hours or premarket? If so can a gap get filled during those periods of trading or would whatever gap that is being filled have to extend into regular hours to be considered a fill? Is the regular hour tape all that is considered valid. I'm assuming the downgap has to fill for the stock to move up but is there a "rule" to upgaps as to which ones will most likely have to be revisited & filled or in the eyes of a gapologist is the gap less of a science and just something which the trader should be aware of in that it exists as a point/hole within the chart which something could occur? Should a gap be evaluated as to how aggressively it was created and carried over into the day's/weeks/months activity and eventually the chart? I've mostly looked at gaps as either a point of potential resistance on a move up or a potential situation where a stock will either rebound or fail. CPST has on multiple occasions failed to hold and, I guess, one could say the revisiting of the gap at 1.36 would be no surprise. My read is that it won't but I don't think I'll fall out of my chair if it does. thanx... jf...
