A trendline breakout is a powerful signal in technical analysis1
. It occurs when the price of an asset moves beyond a trendline that has been acting as a support or resistance level2
. This can indicate a potential continuation of the trend or a reversal, depending on the context.

Here are some key points to consider when analyzing a trendline breakout:

Volume: Look for an increase in trading volume during the breakout. Higher volume can confirm the breakout's validity3
.

Candlestick Patterns: Pay attention to candlestick patterns around the breakout. Bullish patterns (like a hammer or engulfing pattern) can strengthen the breakout signal.

Support/Resistance Levels: Ensure that the trendline has been a significant support or resistance level. A breakout from a well-established trendline is more reliable.
