medium · Volume Price Analysis support-resistance
A trader observes an 'Upthrust' at a major resistance level during a markup.
What is the institutional logic behind this manufactured move?
- To restock their warehouses with cheap inventory bought at wholesale prices.
- To trigger buy-stop orders and lure breakout buyers into weak positions before reversing.
- To test for any remaining sellers still lingering in the market before the markup continues onward.
- To confirm that demand is decisively stronger than supply at the resistance ceiling.
