Combine sentiment data with price action to confirm breakout or fake out scenarios.
Monitor shifts in trader bias during consolidation or trend transitions.
You notice a major resistance level being tested while the long/short ratio shows 85% of accounts are long. This heavy long bias could signal the risk of a flush or stop-hunt before any true breakout — giving you a chance to wait or even fade the move short-term.
