Headline: 🚫 Don’t Get Caught! How to Spot a "Bull Trap" 🚫
Many traders see a sudden price spike, feel the FOMO, and jump in—only to see the market reverse instantly. This is a classic Bull Trap. Here is how the "Smart Money" traps retail traders and how you can avoid it:
1. Watch the Volume 📉
A genuine breakout needs high buying volume. If the price is climbing but volume is decreasing or flat, the move lacks real strength. It’s likely a trap.
2. The "Wick" Rejection 🚧
Look at the candlesticks. If the price breaks above a resistance level but quickly gets pushed back down, leaving a long upper wick, the bears are still in control.
3. RSI Divergence 📊
If the price is making "Higher Highs" but your RSI (Relative Strength Index) is making "Lower Highs," the momentum is fading. The engine is running out of gas!
💡 My Golden Rule: Never buy the first green candle of a breakout. Wait for a retest of the previous resistance level to see if it holds as support.
