A practitioner identifies a 'Spring' in an accumulation range. The price dips below the range low of 42.00 to40.50 and closes at $41.80.

Which volume characteristic would most strongly confirm this as a high-probability buy signal?

  1. Ultra-high volume on the penetration, showing that a massive transfer of stock took place at the lower price level.
  2. Volume exactly equal to the 20-period average, signifying a healthy balance between buyers and sellers.
  3. Low volume on the penetration, indicating that the professionals marked the price down with minimal selling resistance from the herd.
  4. Increasing volume on the recovery back into the range, proving that demand is chasing the price higher.
