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

A practitioner is analyzing a 'Mushroom Top' distribution. They notice that every rally attempt is characterized by lower volume and narrower spreads than the preceding rally, while down-bars show increasing volume.

What principle does this illustrate?

  1. The 'Path of Least Resistance' has shifted downward due to a lack of demand and increasing supply.
  2. Professionals are 'Bag Holding' and will eventually mark the market back up.
  3. This is 'Falling Pressure', indicating that the market is dropping under its own weight without professional selling.
  4. The market is in 'Re-accumulation' and is testing the patience of weak holders.
