When price briefly pokes above resistance without a volume surge and then snaps back inside the range, it's called a 'fakeout.' Traders who chase the breakout late often get stopped out right as price reverses, which can accelerate the drop. Genuine breakouts tend to come with noticeably higher-than-average volume, so confirming volume and requiring a close above resistance — or waiting for a retest that holds as support before entering — are common ways to reduce fakeout risk.
