Reversal training at Platformance spends as much time on failed moves as on clean trends. Traders get trapped when a breakout attracts late entries and then collapses back through the level.
Signs of exhaustion
Look for stretched extension away from value, thinning follow-through, and a decisive reclaim of the broken level. The first higher low (or lower high) after the reclaim often becomes the practical trigger — not the extreme wick itself.
Why patience pays
Calling the exact turning tick is not the goal. Waiting for the market to prove the breakout failed keeps you aligned with the new short-term structure and gives a clearer place for risk.
