hard · Volume Price Analysis
An equity is trading at the ceiling of a well-defined distribution zone. Within three sessions, it produces three consecutive shooting star candles, each characterized by a long upper wick and rising volume that reaches ultra-high levels by the third bar.
What is the diagnosis of this sequence?
- This is a selling climax where insiders are aggressively dumping their remaining inventory to eager retail buyers.
- The consecutive candles indicate a consolidation of power before the next move higher.
- The rising volume suggests that the ceiling is being tested and a bullish breakout is imminent.
- The market is stop-hunting short sellers, and the price will likely continue sideways indefinitely.
