medium · Volume Price Analysis support-resistance

An 'Upthrust' appears at the top of a distribution range. The wick extends significantly above the resistance line, but the close is back inside. Volume is ultra-high.

What is the specific mechanical event that happened?

  1. Insiders hit the buy-stops above resistance to sell their inventory into that forced demand
  2. The start of a fresh 'markup' phase, as insiders begin quietly buying into the confirmed breakout
  3. A successful test of demand, signaling that meaningfully higher prices are coming next
  4. A 'Short Squeeze' that is now forcing trapped insiders to cover their short positions
