Retest
Price returning to a broken level and testing it in its new role (support↔resistance); a confirmed entry opportunity.
A retest shows whether the breakout is real: if the level holds, buyers/sellers have taken control. The stop goes on the other side of the level at entry; the risk is small and defined.
Not every breakout gets a retest; in strong moves price leaves without coming back. In that case, missing the trade beats chasing it.
