Capital Market Chronicles – Episode 235: TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – VOLUME (Part II)

 πŸŒŸ Capital Market Chronicles – Episode 235: TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – VOLUME (Part II)

🎬 “If price is the hero, volume is the hidden director.”


πŸŽ‰Welcome to Part II! Now that you know why volume is so important, let’s dive deeper into how it reveals reversals, institutional moves, breakout traps, and more! πŸ’‘πŸ“Š

πŸ” Why Volume Matters 

4️⃣ Spotting Reversals πŸ”„πŸ”₯

Volume often gives advance hints that price alone won’t show.

For example:

If a stock has been falling for weeks and suddenly big buying volume appears, even before the price moves up —
πŸ‘‰ Someone BIG is accumulating! πŸ§‘‍πŸ’ΌπŸ’°
πŸ‘‰ A reversal could be near

⚡ It’s like the first drop of rain before a thunderstorm — subtle but powerful. 🌧️

5️⃣ Tracking Institutional Activity 🏦🐳

Big institutions (the “whales”) buy and sell in massive quantities.
When you see:

  • Sudden volume spikes

  • Huge bars even without big price movement

It often means institutions are quietly entering or exiting.

Retail traders create ripples… institutions create tsunamis. 🌊

πŸ‹Follow the volume, and you’ll know when the whales swim by!

🎯 How to Analyse Volume Effectively

1️⃣ Confirm Price Movements πŸ“ˆπŸ”

Price going up but volume falling?

πŸ‘‰ Trend may be weakening

Price rising WITH rising volume?

πŸ‘‰ Strong demand, reliable uptrend

Volume is like checking if the “likes” match the “views” — it shows real engagement πŸ˜„πŸ‘

2️⃣ Analyse Resistance Levels πŸ§±πŸ”¨

When the price approaches a known resistance:

  • High volume → Price may break and stay above

  • Low volume → Price may just poke, get rejected, and fall back

πŸ’ͺ It’s like trying to push open a heavy door — without strength (volume), it won’t budge! πŸšͺπŸ˜†

3️⃣ Spot Real vs. Fake Breakouts 🎭⚠️

A real breakout = strong volume

A fake breakout = weak volume

Fake breakouts trap traders like a “BUY 1 GET 1 FREE” sign outside a shop that’s actually closed. πŸšͺ❌πŸ˜‚

4️⃣ Validate Up-Trends πŸš€πŸ“ˆ

In a genuine uptrend:

  • Price ↑

  • Volume ↑

😬 If price rises but volume drops, the trend may be losing energy — like a phone at 5% battery πŸ“±πŸ”‹

5️⃣ Detect Divergence πŸ§­πŸ”„

Divergence = Price and volume moving in opposite ways

Examples:

  • Price rising but volume falling πŸ‘‰ Trend weakening

  • Price falling but volume falling πŸ‘‰ Selling pressure easing → possible reversal

πŸ‘€ It’s like someone smiling while their eyes say, “I’m tired.” πŸ˜…

πŸ“š Real-Life Examples

πŸ“Œ Example 1

Stock breaks resistance at ₹500
πŸ‘‰ With high volume → Strong breakout, likely to continue rising

πŸ“Œ Example 2

Stock trading with unusually low volume
πŸ‘‰ Lack of interest → Possible stagnation or reversal

πŸ“Œ Example 3

Downtrend for months + sudden volume spike
πŸ‘‰ Big players likely accumulating → Reversal coming

🎁 Summary

Volume is not just another indicator — it’s the context behind every price move.
It tells you:
✔ Trend strength
✔ Breakout validity
✔ Market interest
✔ Institutional activity
✔ Reversal signals
