A Look at Declining Volume on Five Prior Market Tops

Afraid to Trade.com

With the current rally progressing on lower volume, I thought I would take a moment to look back at a few historical market tops - or prior to deeper pullbacks - to see how volume behaved just prior to the top.

Let’s see five historical peaks in the Dow Jones Index and pay special attention to the trend of volume  prior to these peaks.  Each chart was created with TradeStation and you can click to zoom-in on the chart.

In all cases, we saw some sort of “trailing off” or decline in the ‘trend’ of volume prior to the absolute market peak.

When the final price high came, it did so on lower absolute volume as well - no chart above shows the absolute high of the rally taking place on the highest daily or weekly volume as shown on the scale.

看来这个周末大家都在做功课！

Volume 这个东西做为Indicator， 量价不配合的情况，很多时候都是“不是不报，时候未到”的那种，一旦来了，就势不可挡，躲无可躲。

下周要热闹了。

Take a breathe and let's get back to the pool next Monday.
