Scaling Aggression

Scaling aggression is the third reason a prior level breaks. The liquidity may still be there — the same participants, the same orders, the same shelf that held before. But the wave of aggression arriving this time is dramatically larger. What held a moderate wave cannot hold a much larger one. The level breaks not because of consumption or withdrawal, but because the force applied exceeds what even a well-stocked shelf can absorb. Like consumption and withdrawal, this is invisible from the chart — all three produce the same result.
