73% of breakout trades fail within the first three trading sessions.
Think about that number for a moment. Nearly three out of four times, those exciting chart patterns everyone gets fired up about—the ascending triangles, bull flags, and "strong stocks getting stronger" setups—turn into expensive lessons instead of profitable trades.
Yet Corey Rosenbloom consistently profits from breakout strategies. His secret isn't some magical pattern recognition ability. It's understanding that successful breakouts aren't about the pattern itself—they're about identifying which setups offer asymmetric risk profiles where your potential reward dramatically outweighs your risk.
Consider his recent Caterpillar analysis. Rather than jumping on the breakout momentum, Corey dissected the underlying trend strength and pullback structure first. "The idea behind this, and as a swing trader, all of us is buying pullbacks, getting long, strong stocks up, trending stocks," he explained during his latest market review.
This approach isn't about hitting home runs more frequently. It's about striking out less catastrophically.
When Corey spots a "strong stock getting stronger" candidate like CAT, he's analyzing far more than price movement. He's evaluating the psychological architecture—the specific market structure that creates clearly defined risk parameters with disproportionate reward potential.
This same asymmetric thinking drives Brandon Chapman's Ghost Prints Weekly strategy. Instead of chasing every promising breakout, Brandon hunts through options flow data to uncover patterns that reveal asymmetric setups—trades where your maximum downside is crystal clear, but your profit runway extends far beyond your risk.
These opportunities aren't gambling disguised as trading. They're mathematically advantaged positions where the risk/reward equation favors you before you even enter the trade. One meticulously researched signal each week, supported by options flow analysis that exposes where institutional money is positioning for asymmetric moves.
The gap between consistently profitable traders and everyone else isn't their accuracy rate. It's their ability to recognize when the mathematical odds are stacked heavily in their favor.
See how Brandon identifies asymmetric opportunities in Ghost Prints Weekly.
Trade well,

P.S. This week's Ghost Prints signal targets a setup where maximum risk is 2.5 points, but profit potential extends beyond 15 points. That's the kind of asymmetric opportunity most traders never see coming. Get Brandon's weekly asymmetric edge.
