medium · Volume Price Analysis climactic

During the distribution phase at the top of a rally, the price makes a final push to a new high, forming a shooting star candle on ultra-high volume.

In terms of Supply and Demand, how is this 'Selling Climax' interpreted?

  1. It is a sign of overwhelming genuine demand that will inevitably lead to an explosive breakout well above resistance.
  2. It represents the transfer of inventory from strong institutional hands to weak retail hands as supply absorbs all remaining demand.
  3. It indicates the start of a completely fresh new markup phase as insiders begin aggressively buying into this new breakout.
  4. It is a successful, low-effort test of demand proving conclusively that the path higher remains entirely clear of significant sellers.
