Stacked Imbalances

Multiple aggressive trades in the same direction on consecutive price levels; strong signal in Order Flow.
Stacked imbalances occur when multiple consecutive price levels show aggressive buying or selling in the same direction. This Order Flow pattern indicates strong conviction and often precedes accelerated price movement as participants chase momentum. The pattern is particularly significant when accompanied by increasing volume, suggesting broad participation rather than isolated large orders.
