Two scenarios to watch — not a prediction
Sweep above
Price runs up to 1.35009, then 1.35138, then 1.35620 – 1.35680. Watch whether it closes back below (a sweep that fails to hold) or keeps closing above (a breakout that has to be respected).
Sweep below
Price runs down to 1.33570, then 1.32714. Watch whether it closes back above (stops taken, buyers return) or keeps closing below (the move continues).
Educational scenario
