It depends on the particular definition of "gap up" being used. If you are comparing the open to the previous close the not gapping up would be:

O <= C1

And the not gapping up by more than 5% would be:

O <= 1.05 * C1

If you are comparing the low to the previous high, the not gapping up would be:

L <= H1

And the not gapping up more than 5% would be:

L <= 1.05 * H1

If you are comparing the open to the previous, the not gapping up would be:

O <= H1

And the not gapping up more than 5% would be:

O <= 1.05 * H1
