Ever wonder why price grinds sideways for weeks before it actually moves?
That's accumulation. Large participants can't build a position in one candle without moving the market against themselves, so they buy in small pieces during quiet, boring ranges where nobody's watching. Distribution works the same way in reverse — selling gets spread across a top formation while retail is busy chasing the breakout. The chop that feels like nothing is happening is often the something happening.
Watch for volume that doesn't match price movement — a range holding steady while volume creeps up is worth more attention than a big green candle everyone already noticed.
