- A sudden gap-down that gets fully closed by a single high-volume up-bar shortly after.
- A wide-spread up-bar on ultra-high volume that decisively breaks above a trend line.
- An up-move on low volume following a period of distribution; it is designed to suck in late buyers.
- A slow, steady grind higher on rising volume after the market has already passed a successful test.
