While observing a downtrend, you see a bar that dips into fresh low ground but recovers to close near its high. The volume for this bar is 0.45 times the 20-day average.
What does this indicate to a professional trader?
- The downtrend is accelerating fast, as the buyers have fully withdrawn now.
- A 'Buying Climax' is occurring here as professionals absorb the panic selling volume.
- Supply is exhausted, as the probe to lower prices attracted very little selling.
- The market is falling under its own weight, driven by heavy and sustained selling pressure.
