Many educational resources suggest that in most cases, the buying side will win the battle and prices will break through resistance. However, based on our experience, this isn't always the case. Sometimes, the resistance zone is too strong and the buying side lacks the strength to break through. Prices often move upwards after breaking the pattern in the majority of cases. The point we want to make is not to be fixated on which direction prices will move, but rather to be prepared for them to move in either direction. In this scenario, we will place a buy stop order above the upper resistance line and a sell stop order below the ascending slope line.
