Anthony here with another insightful discussion on mastering the art of trading by understanding volume and price action.
Whether you’re a seasoned trader or just starting out, grasping this crucial relationship can elevate your trading game to new heights.
Let’s delve into an actual trade setup I had executed and how Hawkeye Volume played a pivotal role in my decision-making process.
First and foremost, it’s essential to recognize that volume can provide valuable insights into market dynamics, regardless of your trading style—be it pullback, breakout, correction, double top, or double bottom trading.
When eyeing a potential trade setup, but before you .dive in, take a step back and assess the volume-price relationship. By pairing volume with price action, you gain a deeper understanding of current market conditions and potential future movements.
Now, I know it’s tempting to clutter your charts with numerous indicators in search of the perfect setup. However, I’ve found that simplicity reigns supreme in trading.
Clean, clutter-free charts with a focus on price and volume are the way to go. Trust me; less is more when it comes to effective analysis.
Let’s walk through a real-life example—a trade I took in the light sweet crude oil market.

As I identified a double top formation and observed price struggling to break above previous highs, followed by a retest of the session low which confirmed ranging.
A surge in selling volume followed by a lack of immediate follow-through caught my eye on the first attempt to break through the session lows.
Interpreting volume alongside price action allowed me to anticipate a potential pullback.
Instead of chasing after the initial breakdown, I patiently waited for confirmation, ensuring a low-risk, high-probability trade entry.
By understanding the nuances of volume and price action, I pinpointed key levels of support and resistance, guiding my entry and exit points with precision. And guess what? The trade played out exactly as anticipated, delivering profitable results.
