hard · Volume Spread Analysis wyckoff-phases-schematics

A practitioner sees a high-volume up-bar with a narrow spread near an old market top from six months ago. The price closes on the high.

Is this always a sign of weakness?

  1. No, because the close occurring right on the high confirms that essentially no sellers remain present anywhere in the market.
  2. Yes, high volume occurring on a narrow spread bar always means that active professional selling is currently taking place there.
  3. Yes, because professionals never buy shares back at old resistance levels once that ceiling is finally broken.
  4. No, it could be 'Absorption Volume' where professionals are buying shares from traders who were 'locked-in' at the old top.
