When the price is moving slowly up as well as consuming all the demand on the way then there will be no demand left until the origin of this pattern.

This pattern is the main reason behind a large bearish candle or big price movement in a very short interval of time. This is called compression in the forex.

Compression
Price CompressionTrading Compression – compression is a very slow price movement that indicates weakness on buying and selling orders.
By this type of movement, the price collects all pending orders on its way up or down and leaves no unfilled orders behind it.
Compression is usually defined by small and messy candles that move up or down in a very tight range.
Usually after compression, near support or resistance levels, we will find big breakout in the opposite direction, since there are no pending orders left to stop the movement.
