How to Identify a Break and Retest Setup: Levels, Role Reversal, and Confirmation

FXOpen, TradingView, and Real Trading describe break-and-retest as a support-and-resistance sequence: a boundary is breached, then price returns so the old line can be checked in the opposite role. Elirox’s forex breakout guide treats a breakout as acceptance beyond a boundary rather than a single-bar wick. This guide states that sequence once, compares how the cited pages define confirmation and failure, and notes the cases they flag as chop or a break that never returns. It is educational information, not financial advice.
