medium · Volume Price Analysis
During an accumulation phase, a wide-spread down candle appears on 0.25× average volume and breaks the support floor. It is immediately followed by a wide-spread up candle on 2.5× average volume.
What is the Wyckoffian term for the first candle?
- Validated markdown: Effort and Result are balanced for a major decline.
- A trap down move (potential Spring) designed to shake out weak holders.
- A 'No Demand' bar signaling a lack of buyers at the top of the range.
- A 'Sign of Weakness' (SOW) indicating the start of the markdown phase.
