For anyone that trades trendlines, how many times have you had a confirmed break of trend only to get stopped out right before the big move?
This has been a challenge for me for a long time.
My strategy works very well, but the market chops, leaving me losing more than I'm making. Even though my prediction's are spot on most of the time.

Take this image for instance, price breaks trend only to snap back inside grabbing orders before following through.
To avoid this you could:

Going forward I am only trading bounces meeting certain parameters:
- Minimum of 3 touchpoints per trendline
- Enter going towards the advantageous side
- Stop is outside the supporting trend
