What is Acceptance?

The market trading at a price with both time and volume, showing that participants agree the price is fair for now. The opposite of rejection.

In context

Acceptance is backward-looking. By the time it is confirmed, part of the move is already over. And acceptance can itself fail later: value accepted at 10:30 can be abandoned at 12:00.
