hard · Volume Spread Analysis
In a distribution range, you observe an Up-Thrust where the price penetrates the upper boundary on high volume but closes on the low. A few bars later, the price attempts to rally but produces a narrow spread up-bar on volume lower than the prior two bars (RV < 0.50).
What does this specific sequence confirm?
- Supply Overcoming Demand is being tested for a breakout.
- The market is preparing for a 'Spring' to flush out weak shorts.
- The professional money has finished distributing and is no longer supporting the market.
- Professional Support is absorbing the supply entering at the highs.
