Picture this: a chart violently breaks down, prints a relief bounce over the next few sessions, and suddenly retail thinks the worst is behind them.

Most traders end up giving back their entire portfolio because they mistake a dead cat bounce for genuine structural strength, entering full size right below heavy resistance.

Looking at how $PUMP is behaving after that collapse, we are seeing a familiar pattern unfold. The immediate reaction looks decent on lower timeframes, but jumping in before proper consolidation completes is usually where liquidity gets trapped. The real risk here is front-running a breakout into overhead supply before the market actually proves it can hold higher lows.

A sustainable move needs a clean base to absorb sell pressure. Until $BTC confirms broader momentum and $PUMP establishes clear support below that key overhead resistance level, chasing this recovery is simply paying premium prices for unconfirmed continuation.

How are you managing risk around these post-dump relief rallies?
