How to Interpret Trading Activity

Raw volume numbers are rarely meaningful on their own. Context — relative to historical averages, concurrent price movements, and sector distribution — is what gives trading activity data explanatory power.

Volume Confirms Price

Rising prices on above-average volume typically signal stronger conviction behind a move. Rising prices on weak volume can suggest a lack of broad participation.

Breadth Reveals Participation

When most stocks advance together, a trend is generally considered healthier than when gains are concentrated in a small number of large-cap names.

VIX as a Sentiment Gauge

The VIX measures 30-day implied volatility. High readings (above 30) historically correlate with elevated fear; low readings (below 15) suggest complacency.
