Be Careful of Fakeout and Make Your Profits Soar!
Many technical investors believe the saying “buy on breakout”, but in some cases, the stock price may briefly break past the resistance level but then quickly return to it, forcing investors to cut losses.
So, how to distinguish Fakeout and Breakout? Today Cici will take a classic bullish pattern - double bottom as an example and share a practical tip:
1. Breakout: The price barely breaks a pattern and continues with huge momentum, without touching the structure again.
2. Fakeout: The price breaks one pattern but it comes back to it.
3. Retest: The price breaks one structure and comes back to it, and bounces after touching it.
It is worth noting that sometimes even after a retest, the stock price may fail to break out. In such cases, it is important for investors to consider whether to continue holding the stock or to cut losses objectively.
Additionally, combining candlestick patterns with breakout and fakeout can further assist us in making informed decisions.
Our courses “Trading Tutorials-Candlestick Patterns” provide several bullish and bearish candlestick patterns that can be useful for traders.
