medium · Volume Spread Analysis climaxes-tests-springs-upthrusts

After a period of distribution, a market attempts to rally on narrow spreads and volume that is significantly lower than the prior two bars.

How should a professional practitioner interpret this bar?

  1. No demand, showing that professionals are not interested in higher prices and have withdrawn their support from the rally.
  2. A successful test, confirming that the path of least resistance is now to the upside.
  3. No supply, indicating that there are no sellers left in the market and the price is set to surge.
  4. A temporary consolidation phase where both buyers and sellers are waiting for a news catalyst to determine the next move.
