Price Momentum Unlock

Definition

Price momentum unlock describes a situation where an asset’s price, after a period of consolidation or stagnation, begins a sustained movement in a particular direction. This often occurs when a significant barrier, such as a resistance level or a lack of buying pressure, is overcome. It signals a shift in market sentiment and can lead to accelerated price appreciation or depreciation. Traders often monitor these unlocks for potential entry or exit points.
