Ready to learn how to ethically steal TONS of money from other stock market traders with this one indicator?
This is an incredible indicator used by none other than Steve Cohen. Cohen's firm, S.A.C., which derives its name from his initials, is a multi-billion dollar hedge fund company. His actual trading profits have averaged approximately 70 percent per year.
He has some 60 traders working for him. He is a master of watching a stock's volume.
More amateur traders overlook volume than any other technical indicator.
This article and lesson is about how to READ volume correctly. Don't be arrogant. Even if you think you know everything there is to know about volume, you owe it to yourself to read this article and make sure you know how to use volume to super-charge your stock market profits.
Each measured unit of volume represents the meeting of minds between two individuals: a buyer and a seller. Volume measures shares or contracts that have changed hands. Volume is most commonly shown as a histogram bar below the stock price. Volume reveals clues about the psychology of bulls and bears. Rising volume confirms trends while falling volume means you should question the longevity of the existing trend.
In a sell off, increasing volume into the move tells you that panic has firmly settled in as traders scramble for the exit. If you look carefully, you'll also see newbies jumping in as they bet the market is going to reverse. Keep in mind that in order for a sell order to execute, someone has to be a buyer. Every trade has these two sides. Jumping in to buy in a downtrend is known as trying to catch a falling knife. Most often it is a bad idea. Never bet against the wisdom of the crowd. Let some other newbie put on that trade. When all the sellers have exited the stock, the volume on the downside falls off as the downward move begins to run out of steam.
When a stock is trending higher, watch the volume. If the volume is increasing into the upward trend, it means that greed is causing more and more traders to take notice of a particular stock and to dog pile into that stock. As the stock continues to trend higher, the volume will continue to build which tells you that more and more traders are piling into the stock and that extreme greed has firmly gripped the market participants. Now keep an eye on the volume. Fear will slowly begin to replace greed as the volume begins to fall off and the uptrend starts to run out of steam.
Volume goes beyond just telling the conviction of a current trend, it gives you several clues.
If the volume spikes on a single day, it often means that a new trend is about to start, especially if it happens on a breakout from a previous trading range. If the volume spikes 300 percent or more above the average it often means that market hysteria has set in. This occurs when fearful bears decide that a downward move has broken key support and rush in to sell short or when bulls decide that an uptrend is for real on a resistance break and rush in to buy.
A divergence between volume and price usually means that a stock is at a turning point.
When volume falls as prices rise, it means that the uptrend is attracting less interest. When volume falls while prices fall to a new low, it means that lower prices are attracting little interest and an upside reversal could happen at any time. Price is slightly more important than volume but millionaire traders analyze volume to figure out the psychology of the crowd before committing to a decision. - 23221
