David, if I have any luck at all with my attachment inclusion skills, I might illustrate how I am planning a reentry to SBUX (Starbucks). Note in my attached a recent small gap at around $53.75, but a much broader one a few weeks earlier which appeals to me at around $46.50 as an attractive reentry point.
Perhaps a better part of my direct reply to your question would be to find yourself a user-friendly charting tool (mine is via my TDA trading account, and is called Think or Swim). Couple the charts with knowledge from a great little book called "Stikky Stock Charts". Hopefully my attachment reveals both assets that I rely on for buying and selling wisdom.
nice chart SI. after a poke out of the bottom of the ascending triangle, that could propel and thrust that thing into a breakout coming up....I would have to see a little more of the chart to see at what point the ascending triangle comes in a larger trend though before you could anticipate a brekout to the upside or downside.
