False breakouts

Price moves beyond a level, then returns inside the earlier range.

What to notice

A failed break can reveal rejection of prices outside the range, particularly when a later candle closes back inside.

The context that matters

Distinguish an ordinary pullback from a failure by defining the boundary in advance.

Common mistake

Relabeling any losing breakout as “false” without an objective rule.

Try it on a chart

Set a precise rule for how far and how long price must remain beyond your level.
