hard · Volume Spread Analysis supply-demand-smart-money
A stock is at the end of a long-term bull market. A 'no-demand' bar appears, followed by a bar that is a narrow-spread up-bar on ultra-high volume closing in the middle.
What is the narrative of professional activity here?
- The narrative is bullish, since both bars together show a total lack of meaningful selling pressure anywhere.
- The 'no-demand' bar was a misread, and the ultra-high-volume bar shows the markup resuming with even more force.
- Professionals initially withdrew (no demand), then returned to aggressively cap the final retail buying frenzy (supply entering).
- Professionals are 're-accumulating' the stock because the ultra-high volume proves they are absorbing every share available on offer.
