The real secret of the crypto world is not in the price charts, but in the trading volume.
Over time, you will understand: price is just surface-level performance, while volume is the true signal from the major players. Newbies focus on the ups and downs of emotions, while the experienced look at the volume first—this is where the difference lies.
Today, I will share three truths about volume that the major players fear you will understand.
First: A large volume drop, 90% of the time, is not an opportunity, but a signal to run away.
If you dare to buy when prices are falling and the trading volume is still so high? That’s not panic selling; it’s the major players offloading their shares to you.
The real bottom has never come from excitement, but when the price keeps falling with decreasing volume, appearing cold and ignored.
Second: A low volume sideways market is the harshest test of patience.
Prices are stagnant, people gradually leave the market, and trading volume decreases—this does not mean the crypto is dead; it means someone is quietly accumulating.
Conversely, if the volume keeps increasing during the sideways period? Don’t hesitate; that’s often a preparatory move before a bullish trap.
Third: A volume breakout, don’t rush; watch the second candlestick.
A true breakout never happens with just one candlestick. The first one is there to show you; only if the second one can also increase in volume does it signify a real start.
If the volume decreases immediately after a rise? Then you’re likely on the opposite side of the major players.
Remember this phrase: volume precedes price, price follows volume.
If you only look at the price, you are trading with your eyes closed; if you can understand the volume, you can foresee the outcome half a step ahead.
There are always opportunities in the market, what’s lacking is those who can understand.
Those who understand naturally know how to follow,
While those who don’t can only continue to pay tuition in the market.
