Trading context

Why it matters

It can cause abrupt, large price moves that override technical levels. Traders progressing past the basics tend to lean on this more heavily as they start combining multiple concepts into a coherent trading approach.

Example

How traders may see it

Sudden reversals following suspected central bank buying or selling. In practice, traders typically encounter this directly within their trading platform, charting software, or an economic calendar, depending on the specific context in which it arises.
