About This Pattern: Absorption

This scenario demonstrates absorption at support. Watch for a large bid (10,000 shares) at $100.00 that absorbs selling pressure without moving or cancelling.

Key observations:

  • Large 10,000 share bid stays at $100.00
  • Multiple sell orders execute against this bid
  • Bid size remains constant (doesn't decrease)
  • Price holds at the support level

This is a bullish signal - a committed buyer is defending the support level!
