Question for P&F enthusiasts? There have been studies showing buying after a breakout of a double top and selling after a breakout of a double bottom. Don't gaps make these results very misleading? Don't they show the net result of the overnight session, but ignore what happened in terms of supply and demand overnight? I'm curious as to how these charts do during after an intra-day breakout.

we can see triple top breakout & a triple bottom breakout at the circled area, but what we can also see is the upside breakout didn't hold, can the op (if he's around) or anyone explain why?
