🌟 Capital Market Chronicles – Episode 234: TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – VOLUME (Part I)
🎤 “When price talks, volume whispers the truth.”
😄 Welcome back to another episode of our fun-yet-serious market adventures! Today, we dive into one of the most underrated heroes of technical analysis — VOLUME. Yes, the little coloured bars at the bottom of your chart that most beginners ignore until someone tells them, “Boss, THIS is the real story.” 📊
💥 Let’s decode volume — with humour, clarity, and emojis that refuse to stay quiet 🤫
🔊 What Is Volume (And Why Should You Care)?
In technical analysis, volume simply means the total number of shares, contracts, or assets traded during a specific time, usually a day.
Think of volume as the crowd noise in a stadium:
-
A loud roar 👉 Something big is happening
-
Total silence 👉 Either the match is boring or everyone is confused 😅
When volume rises, it shows strong interest. When it falls, it shows… well, sleepy traders sipping chai. ☕😴
Volume helps you judge the strength, reliability, and intent behind price movements — and trust me, price without volume is like Bollywood without background music. Something always feels incomplete. 🎬🎶
The best part? Every trading platform shows volume data — no detective work needed! 🕵️♂️📈
🎯 Why Volume Matters
1️⃣ Confirmation of Trends 📈📉
Volume is like a supporting witness in court — it proves whether the price move is genuine or a drama performance.
-
If the stock price rises with high volume 👉 Strong buying, reliable trend
-
If the price falls with high volume 👉 Strong selling, trend likely to continue
-
Price moves with low volume 👉 Hmm… maybe traders are not convinced 😒
📢 It’s like 10 people shouting “BUY!” vs 10,000 people shouting “BUY!”
Which one sounds more reliable? 😄
2️⃣ Validity of Breakouts 🚀🔥
A breakout is when the price smashes through a resistance level like a hero breaking a wooden plank in a karate demo 🥋💥
But wait — did it break with real force?
-
High volume breakout 👉 Legit! Many traders are part of the move.
-
Low volume breakout 👉 Fake-out alert! Price might fall back like it slipped on soap. 🧼😆
Always check for volume, or else you might celebrate too early like a batsman who lifts the bat for a six… only to realise the fielder caught it at the boundary. 🙈🏏
3️⃣ Gauging Market Interest 👀📊
Volume tells you whether the market is “interested” in a stock or just “swiping left.” 💔😆
-
Low volume 👉 Traders ignoring it, possible price stagnation or fall
-
High volume 👉 Stock is trending, buzzing, and ready for action
When the crowd gathers, something big is coming — either fireworks or fire extinguishers. 🎆🧯🤣
That's the end of Part I, where we covered what volume is, why it matters, and the first key concepts.
