medium · Volume Price Analysis
An 'upthrust' at a resistance level is accompanied by low volume.
What is the structural interpretation?
- A high-conviction breakout that is simply waiting for a news catalyst to surge.
- A sign of massive accumulation by insiders who are hiding their orders.
- A 'failed upthrust' that suggests price will immediately break through on the next attempt.
- A test of demand; insiders pushed price higher to see if buyers would react, and they did not.
