Pre-Spike Flow

Definition

Pre-spike flow refers to the observed transaction activity or market order movements occurring before a significant price increase. This term is used in market analysis to identify patterns of increased buying pressure, large order placements, or unusual on-chain activity that precedes a sharp upward price movement in a digital asset. Detecting pre-spike flow can provide early indications of impending market volatility. Analysts often scrutinize these movements to gain insights into potential market manipulation or institutional interest.
