For those trading purely off the DOM: How do you differentiate between aggressive price movement that signals true momentum (likely continuation) and aggressive movement that's actually an exhaustion spike about to reverse? What specific cues in the order flow, liquidity changes, or pace of the tape help you make that distinction in real-time without chart context? Looking for specific DOM observables. Thanks.

Hi One...

Look at Ask / Bid imbalances for tip off. If there is no obvious imbalance (30% difference), Fade the Move. If it's an area of breakout and there is a strong imbalance, take the trend.

Good luck
