📉 How to detect exhaustion in lower time frames
In lower time frames (5m–15m–1h) exhaustion is faster and more deceptive.
Signals:
Shorter and shorter impulses.
Decreasing volume on new highs.
Many wicks in the same area.
Inability to continue after a breakout.
Examples:
$SOL in 15m breaks the high but the next impulse is weak → possible exhaustion.
$LINK rises strongly in 5m but leaves several upper wicks → buyers losing strength.
$AVAX accelerates vertically and then enters a micro range → pause or reversal.
Conclusion:
In lower time frames, those who enter late pay for the exhaustion.
