medium · Volume Price Analysis
Identify the 'Asymmetry Rule' regarding volume and trend direction.
- Uptrends require ultra-high volume at every step, while downtrends only require average volume.
- Rising volume is only bullish; falling prices on rising volume indicate a 'trap down.'
- Volume should rise on moves in the trend direction (up or down) and fall on pullbacks.
- Markets fall faster than they rise because falling requires no institutional volume due to gravity.
