Imbalance
A marked excess of aggression on one side at a level, visible on the footprint.
An imbalance appears when aggressive volume on one side far exceeds the other at a price (often a 3-to-1 ratio). Stacked, imbalances trace zones of strength or weakness that price later respects.
Example
Several buy imbalances stacked below price = dynamic support.
