A practitioner sees 'Stopping Volume' on a daily chart. Bar 1 is a wide-spread down-bar on ultra-high volume closing on the high. To improve timing, the practitioner checks the 15-minute intraday chart.
What should they look for to confirm professional accumulation occurred during that daily bar?
- A run of gap-ups appears during the thin lunchtime lull, the day's thinnest volume.
- A rounded 'mushroom top' forms over the bar once the initial high-volume spike fades away.
- A sequence of high-volume down-bars closing off their lows followed by low-volume tests.
- An up-thrust appears in the closing fifteen minutes of trading, driven by unusually heavy volume.
