What is a Bear Trap and how to avoid it?
In the crypto world, not everything that goes down... keeps going down. Sometimes, the market tricks us.
A Bear Trap is when the price breaks a key support level downwards, making it seem like the trend will be negative, but quickly recovers, leaving trapped those who sold in panic or opened short positions.
Why does it happen?
Market manipulation by whales or bots.
Mass activation of stop-losses.
False technical breakouts in support areas.
How to avoid falling into it?
1. Don't trade solely based on a bearish candle.
2. Confirm with volume and market structure.
3. Use multiple analysis (RSI, MACD, etc.).
4. Always have a plan: no emotions.
Final advice:
Don't let a trap take you out of the game. In crypto, patience and analysis are worth more than quick reactions.
