Liquidity and congestion zones are essential concepts for interpreting price action in the market. Liquidity zones highlight areas of high resistance where significant buying or selling activity occurs, often causing prices to stall or reverse. Congestion zones, on the other hand, are formed by seller activity, leading to periods of sideways market movement as buy and sell orders compete.
