6 Bearish Traps That Wreck Most Traders (Read Before You Buy Any Dip) 📉
I wasn’t dumb. I wasn’t new.
But I thought every dip was a discount.
Turns out…
Some dips are deadly.
If you’ve ever said “It’s just a pullback” — and watched your trade die… this is your warning 🚨
Here are 6 Bearish Traps that destroyed my portfolio 👇
1️⃣ The Snapback Trap ⚡
Price breaks resistance → looks bullish…
Then WHAM! Sharp reversal.
No warning. No mercy. Just pain.
2️⃣ The Slow Bleed 🩸
Starts like a small dip…
But price keeps dripping slowly.
No bounce. Just a long, slow loss.
3️⃣ The Fakeout & Dump 🎣
Price breaks out. Volume surges.
Everyone buys. Then — instant dump.
Classic trap. Classic regret.
4️⃣ Gap Fill Reversal 📦
Price fills a gap → looks ready to moon 🚀
Then reverses hard.
FOMO gets punished fast.
5️⃣ False Double Top 🎭
Chart shows a double top → bulls jump in.
But it’s a trap.
No breakout — just breakdown.
6️⃣ Retest Trap 🧱
Support breaks → then retests like it’s coming back.
But it’s just bait.
Next move? Another flush.
💡 What I Do Differently Now:
✅ I don’t chase every dip
✅ I look for traps before entries
✅ I protect my capital first — profits come second
📉 In bear markets, survival = success.
Knowing when NOT to trade is a superpower.
👉 Don’t repeat my $50K mistake.
Learn the traps. Master your exits.
Trade like a sniper — not a gambler. 🎯
