PRICE STALLED, YOU CALLED IT A TOP, AND IT RAN RIGHT THROUGH YOU. Price can stop moving for two completely different reasons. On the chart they look identical. Absorption: the aggression is still there. Buyers keep hitting, someone keeps filling them, and price just doesn't go anywhere. The pressure is blocked. Exhaustion: the aggression is gone. Nobody's pushing, volume thins out at the extreme, and price drifts. The pressure disappeared. Same flat candles. Opposite meaning. That's why so many "reversal" trades get run over. You see the stall, assume the move is done, and short into a level where someone is quietly absorbing everything — then the move continues without you. The stall tells you nothing on its own. What's behind it is the whole trade. Full order flow strategy 👉 https://t.co/KOhPh4FLt8 #OrderFlow #Absorption #Futures
