hard · Volume Price Analysis

A currency pair is trading on a 5-minute chart following a major economic release. A long-legged doji forms with volume that is only fifty percent of the recent average.

What should a VPA practitioner conclude?

  1. The doji validates a trend reversal because it appears after a sustained price move.
  2. The low volume indicates a successful test of supply, and the market is about to enter a markup phase.
  3. The indecision is real and institutional participants are actively fighting for control of the new price level.
  4. The volatility is manufactured by insiders for stop-hunting, and the price action is a trap that should be ignored.
