easy · Volume Price Analysis climactic

How does a 'Spring' formation at a support level function as a trap for retail traders?

  1. It pushes above resistance to trigger buy-stops, letting insiders quietly exit their accumulated long positions.
  2. It is a deliberately engineered low-volume move that confirms the support breakdown will continue rapidly into new lows.
  3. It pushes below support to trigger sell-stop orders and shake out weak holders before insiders buy and reverse the price.
  4. It signals that insiders have fully withdrawn from the market, leaving retail price action to drift aimlessly without direction.
