Bongabob maybe you're spending too much time on the bong mate - here's a definition of bear trap:
A Bear Trap can prompt a trader to expect a decline in the value of a stock or index, prompting them to take a short position on the asset. When this phenomenon occurs, however, the value of the asset stays flat or begins to recover. The trader shorting the asset would then be said to be caught in a bear trap.
