What Does This Mean?
The mistaken belief that a position can be sold quickly and at the displayed price, when in practice the actual available liquidity is far thinner than the chart suggests, causing the real exit price to be much worse than expected.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"The chart said I could sell at that price. The actual order book disagreed violently the moment I tried."
LORE & ORIGIN
Identified by on-chain analysts around 2022-2023 studying why traders consistently overestimate how easily they can exit thinly-traded tokens, a gap between displayed and actual liquidity that becomes obvious only at the moment of trying to sell.
