Price is the result; flow is the cause
A candle is a summary. Underneath it sit thousands of orders, some patient, some panicked.

- Traps: a break that fails immediately, leaving late entrants offside
- Liquidity: the resting orders that make a move possible in the first place
Institutions need volume to fill. That need leaves footprints.
