hard · Volume Spread Analysis effort-vs-result-spread

An index has been rallying for several months and reaches an old trading range from the previous year. On the first day of contact with this zone, a wide-spread up-bar appears on ultra-high volume, but the price closes in the lower third of its range.

What does this price action primarily indicate regarding professional sentiment?

  1. The high volume confirms strong buying pressure that will likely lead to an immediate breakout.
  2. A narrow-spread bar would be required to confirm that supply is actually present in this area.
  3. Supply is entering the market as professionals use the rally to distribute into retail demand.
  4. The market is showing absorption volume as professionals buy through the old resistance levels.
