The closest meaning of "backup" to the meaning explained in the question is "retracting" or "retrenchment." In that sense, "backup" is a figurative term used for situations parallel to what happens when a drain pipe is clogged and the water "backs up" or when the traffic is jammed during a rush hour or due to an accident, so the traffic "backs up." In this sense, a market backup represents a bearish market after a bullish trend, but not the other way around. The only example of the use of the term "backup" in the sense explained in the question that I could find is the defintion itself, which seems to be blindly copied by many online glossaries. If you find any example of the term "backup" used in the sense of forward or upward reversal, please share it with us. Fuad |
