A mitigation block is the origin candle of a move that price later returns to in order to fill (mitigate) unfilled orders left behind, often before continuing in the original direction. It's closely related to the order block but framed around unfinished business at the move's start.

It forms when a strong move leaves orders unfilled at its origin. Price later revisits that area to mitigate them. The cleaner the original move and the tighter the return, the more the block tends to matter.
