Understanding Volume Before You Trade

Volume analysis isn't just about numbers on a chart. It's about reading the market's heartbeat and understanding what other traders are actually doing with their money.

Essential Concepts You Need First

  • Price and Volume Relationship

    When prices move up on high volume, that's usually real buying interest. But when prices drift higher on light volume? That's often just noise. Think of volume as the fuel behind price movement.

  • Market Structure Basics

    Every market has its rhythm. The Thai SET moves differently than NASDAQ, and both have different volume patterns throughout their trading sessions. You need to understand your specific market first.

  • Time Frame Considerations

    Volume on a 5-minute chart tells a completely different story than volume on a daily chart. Start with longer time frames until you understand how volume flows throughout different periods.

  • Support and Resistance Context

    Volume spikes often happen at key levels where traders make decisions. If you don't know where these levels are, volume analysis becomes much harder to interpret correctly.

Learning From Real Experience

Volume analysis looks simple on paper, but real market conditions throw curveballs every day. That's why learning from traders who've seen different market cycles makes such a difference.

Our mentors have traded through the 2020 volatility, the recent tech corrections, and everything in between. They've made mistakes, learned from them, and developed approaches that work in both trending and choppy markets.
