A breakout system is most commonly used to refer to a case where the market price breaks above a level of resistance and heads higher, rather than breaking below a level of support and heading lower. When a resistance level is broken, it is viewed as the next level of support if the asset experiences a pullback most Forex traders make use of chart patterns and other technical tools like trendlines to detect possible candidates which are likely to break through a support or resistance level.
