Closing the Gap
When a stock "fills in" or retraces the range of a recent gap.

[ Closing the Gap ]

This daily candlestick charts shows several examples of Microsoft's stock closing the gaps created. In the last five days shown, a downward gap and an upward gap occur, only to close within a day's time. And for the gap down that occurred on the first trading day of October? Followers of this stock know that this gap was also closed several weeks later! (This example is not illustrative of all gaps. Gaps do not necessarily close.)

By using the "Pointer" in RightLine Charts, you can isolate a specific period, and the price and technical information from that period will be displayed on the bottom of the screen.
