You can do it either way. The best way is to flicker it out and bring it back all the way to it's defensive position, and then fire it straight back out, I think.

It depends. The main objective of the double/flicker jab is to catch them when they're not expecting it as well as to maintain an arms length distance so that your opponent can't hit you that easily.

If you do it the right way, you can even stick your arm straight out in front of them and keep it there. If I were you I'd watch some Tommy Hearns fights and pay attention to his flicker jab.

Another notable thing that Tommy Hearns does is he sticks his glove in front of his opponents eye, and holds his arm straight out when he does so. The purpose of that is to block the opponents view while he's coming behind it with a powerful straight right. If you manage to see that on the video, pay very close attention to how he does it.

Check out Hearns vs. Pipino Cuevas. It's a nice, short fight that ends spectacularly and it's chock full of examples of distance with good jab frequency and power. Check out the link below.
