Trendline Breakout

Price broke above the trendline then slammed right back below it. So a trader going long right there would've gotten stopped out fast.

That's because most traders buy the break instead of waiting for it to hold. Traders call this setup a Trendline Breakout and it's a classic trap.

It means price only pretended to break free before sellers took back control.
