How and Why Do I Do Trade-Volume Analysis
Trade and volume analysis helps me determine optimal price levels for buying and selling securities. At Equilyst Analytics, I use a specific approach known as Dominant Range analysis, which focuses on two key aspects: trades and volume.
When conducting trade and volume analysis, I assess the position of the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) in relation to the current price. Additionally, I consider the position of the dominant range relative to the intraday high and low.
The dominant range refers to the price range characterized by the highest trading volume and the greatest number of trades. By examining the proximity of the dominant range to the intraday high and low, I gain insights into the interest of participating traders and investors in pushing the price higher.
To gauge the level of optimism among participants regarding buying the stock at a higher price, I analyze whether the current price exceeds the VWAP or if the VWAP falls within the dominant range, particularly closer to the intraday high than the intraday low.
Achieving a sense of balance or equilibrium between the number of trades and volume at each price level is essential. This equilibrium is evaluated in relation to the individual distribution of trades and volume within each group.
The culmination of this analysis is the development of my proprietary Dominant Range Index, which encapsulates the statuses of the elements I have encoded. By leveraging my algorithm’s processing capabilities, the Dominant Range Index can yield a bullish or bearish rating.
As the fifth component of my 6-indicator Evergreen Strategy When Trading and Investing in the Philippine Stock Market, the Dominant Range Index applies the Nash Equilibrium effect, a theory that holds considerable value in my capacity as a computer scientist and professional stock market analyst.
While the technical description of this functionality may seem intricate, I have simplified it by assigning an overall bullish or bearish rating to the Dominant Range analysis. A bullish rating implies an upward price movement is likely, while a bearish rating indicates the opposite.
In this complimentary report, I am pleased to share the Dominant Range Index for the following stocks, along with the respective date and time stamps displayed on their charts.
