What formed

A liquidity sweep, or stop hunt, is a sharp push just past an obvious high or low that grabs the resting stop orders sitting there, then quickly reverses. Predictable stops cluster beyond prior extremes, which makes those areas common fake-out zones.

It forms when price runs a level everyone can see (a prior high, a round number, equal highs or lows), triggers the stops, and fails to hold above or below. The reversal that follows is what distinguishes a sweep from a genuine breakout.

Backtested liquidity-sweep outcomes, book early management, both direction. Net of 0.12% round-trip fees. Rows with n < 20 shown greyed. Methodology

How we compute this

Fixed 2% risk per trade; position size comes from the distance to invalidation. Returns are non-compounded (a flat 2% risk each time), reported net of a 0.12% round-trip fee. Rows below 20 historical instances are surfaced as directional, not conclusive.

How this pattern behaves

The key read is the reclaim: after the wick past the level, does price close back inside the range? A sweep-and-reclaim is treated as the trap confirming, a sustained break is not. We measure how often the reclaim actually led to a reversal.

Also known as: stop hunt.
