medium · Volume Price Analysis support-resistance

An equity index futures contract breaks below a well-defined support floor on volume that is significantly below the 20-day average. The candle is wide-spread and bearish.

What is the primary risk for a trader entering short here?

  1. The market is entering a price waterfall phase which may be too fast to catch.
  2. This represents a successful test of demand that will lead to lower prices.
  3. The move is validated and the low volume suggests the market is falling under its own weight.
  4. The move is an insider-manufactured trap (fakeout) and is likely to reverse.
