LEN is also breaking out, after a failed breakout last week.

Same with DFXI (not a homebuilder but nevertheless breaking out after a
failed breakout).

When stocks fake a breakout, only to have a true breakout days later, what
does it say about the market? Were the recent "sell everything" signals
false, or is the action over the past few days just a temporary bounce?

I suspended all buys after all the recent distribution, but now I'm seeing
new breakouts on stocks that I have been watching. Frustrating, to say the
least...
