Interesting one, do you find the move is better probability or larger/stronger when the trigger bar lines up with obvious resistance like that, or do you get more fakeouts/failures?

The setup today did happen at an obvious resistance. I prefer it to be above the line or below the line but once it has been breached, it usually has less impact. I haven't altered my plan for resistance lines so I don't know the stats on fakeouts/failures.
