Ever enter what looked like a textbook breakout, only to watch price sweep your stop to the tick before launching straight toward your target? You aren't being personally targeted by the market—you're getting caught in basic institutional mechanics.

In Episode 16 of The Franks Report, we break down why traditional retail support and resistance levels consistently turn into traps, and how smart money uses resting order flow to engineer liquidity. If you're tired of serving as exit liquidity for larger market participants, this episode breaks down how the auction really works beneath the surface.

In this episode, we cover:

• The Anatomy of a Liquidity Sweep: Why textbook support/resistance levels represent predictable pools of orders and how larger participants trigger them.
• Absorption vs. Continuation: How to spot the difference between genuine market initiative and an engineered trap before pulling the trigger.
• The Stop-Hunt Illusion: Why stops get triggered at obvious swing points—and why it’s a structural auction necessity rather than a conspiracy.
• Fixing Your Execution: Practical adjustments to stop placement, structural invalidation points, and using volume confirmation to trade alongside market mechanics.
