medium · Volume Price Analysis
In a 'Double Bottom' formation, how does the volume signature on the second test distinguish a 'Continuation' from a 'Reversal'?
- Higher volume on the second test validates the support level and confirms that a powerful reversal is now firmly underway.
- Volume should always match exactly on both tests; any observed variation between the two signals a deliberate trap.
- If volume is lower on the second test, it is a reversal (rejection); if volume is higher, it is likely a continuation (breakdown).
- Lower volume on the second test always proves a breakdown is imminent, since it clearly reveals a total lack of interested remaining buyers.
