#1 Volume Color Can Create a False Illusion

At first look, it looks like a big volume spike.

But if you notice the price candle, it has a big selling wick.

It indicates "SELLING PRESSURE" is high at that time.


We can easily avoid this false impression using the "BLACK" color code across all the volume bars.

Now your mind doesn't assume it is a bullish volume spike!

(If you don't want to use the black color, then view the chart without getting any bias based on the volume color)


#2 Analyze Each Volume Spike Carefully

In this image, the price is breaking the resistance trendline.

How do you say whether it is a genuine breakout or false breakout (from a volume perspective)?


Observe the major Volume Spikes.

A is Bullish (Price moved upside on the next day)

B is Bearish (Price fell on the next day)

C is Bearish (Price moved sideways and fell)

D is Bearish (Price fell on the next day)

So High Probability of FALSE BREAKOUT!
