medium · Volume Price Analysis validation

A stock has risen for five consecutive days. On Day 5, the price makes a new high, but the volume is 40% lower than on Day 2.

What VPA term describes this, and what is the trade implication?

  1. Volume-Price Divergence; the uptrend is exhausted and vulnerable to a sharp reversal.
  2. Effort-Result Balance; the move is healthy because it requires less effort to maintain momentum.
  3. Low-volume test; the insiders are checking for sellers before making the next push higher.
  4. Bullish Validation; the lack of volume shows there is no supply to stop the advance.
