Aggressive Buyer
An aggressive buyer is a market participant who accepts available sell prices to execute immediately rather than waiting for sellers to trade at a lower bid. This commonly involves buying at the ask or otherwise removing sell side liquidity.
Why it matters to you
Aggressive buyers reveal a willingness to pay the currently available selling price. When aggressive buying increases, traders can compare that activity with the resulting price movement. If large aggressive buying produces very little upward progress, that itself can be useful information.
