A practitioner sees 'Falling Pressure'. Bar 1: Wide down, low volume, close low. Bar 2: Narrow down, ultra-low volume, close high. Bar 3: Wide up, average volume, close high.
What does the low volume of Bar 1 indicate about professional participation?
- Bar 1 is simply a 'No Demand' signal occurring within an ongoing bear market.
- Professionals are absent on the sell-side, making the market vulnerable to a reversal.
- The markdown is accelerating because there is now a severe lack of remaining buyers.
- Professionals are actively driving the market down on Bar 1 to shake out weak, panicking holders.
