A gap fill happens when price retraces to cover the price range of
an earlier gap. gap_fill flags the bar where the fill completes.
Shape
{ "type": "gap_fill", "gap_pct": 0.3 }Params
- gap percent - only consider gaps of at least this size.
Usage
- Exit cue: close gap-trade positions when the gap fills.
- Reversal cue: a fast gap fill often marks exhaustion.
Pitfalls
Same as gap - rarely relevant in 24/7 crypto.
