What Is An Impulsive Move?

[Sureforex]

An impulsive move is one whereby the market moves quite strongly or heavily in that direction, covering a great distance in a short period of time. These moves tell you when the imbalance between the buyers and sellers is really strong and there is heavy participation from the institutional side.

Logically, more money can be made during these impulsive moves, as they cover more points  in less time. They are generally more volatile, and thus provide us with great opportunities to get more R (reward) with less risk since the market will stretch more easily in one direction. But no matter what, we want to be trading with these moves as much as possible, not against them.
