When there is a gap in the stock price, it changes for a few days or even longer, and then it is reversed and returned to the original price of the gap. This is called the closing of the gap, which is also called covering the position.

Gap refers to a period of time when the stock price changes rapidly and violently, and there is no transaction, which is a vacuum area shown on the stock price chart. This area is called "gap" and is often called gap.

Note: General blanks will be filled in. Because the gap is a vacuum zone without trading, it reflects the impulsive behavior of investors at that time. When the investment sentiment calmed down, investors over-reflected on their past behavior, so the gap was made up.

In fact, not all types of gaps will be filled, including breakthrough gaps, and persistent gaps will not necessarily be filled, nor will they be filled immediately; Only consumable gap and ordinary gap can be filled in a short time, so whether the gap is filled is not helpful for analysts to observe the market outlook.

China stock market has always had the habit of making up shortcomings. Shortage is often caused by the impulse of both long and short sides under the stimulation of sudden external factors. After that, there will be a shortage in theory after the market time gradually digests the stimulating factors and the rationality of buyers and sellers gradually recovers.

Generally speaking, if the gap is not filled by the next secondary market, it may be filled by the next intermediate market. If the time is longer, it will be taken away by the next original trend.
