Fakeout Pump

What happened

A 150-tick synthetic scenario built to bait an agent. ETH drifts flat,

then ramps +5% in 30 ticks accompanied by an on-chain "whale activity"

headline. The headline is deliberately misleading — over the following

80 ticks the breakout reverses to -3% from start.

What this tests

• Skepticism toward unconfirmed bullish headlines
• Patience to wait for follow-through before chasing a breakout
• Cutting losses when the breakout fails instead of "hoping"
