Large visible liquidity does NOT guarantee that price will reverse. Orders can be pulled. Liquidity can be consumed. Large orders can also attract price rather than repel it. Therefore FATBOOK evaluates liquidity together with price, location, delta, CVD, and participation.

Liquidity at EXT

01Is liquidity forming beyond EXT?
02Is liquidity defending EXT?
03Are aggressive participants consuming it?
04Is price continuing efficiently?
05Does liquidity remain after repeated attacks?
06Is price failing to establish acceptance beyond the level?
FATBOOK Rule

LIQUIDITY IS INFORMATION — NOT A WALL YOU BLINDLY TRADE AGAINST.

Next: quantify the aggression sitting behind that liquidity.
