When I buy stocks, I don’t just rely on the lowest price I use under the Ask column. Also, I don’t just refer to the highest price under the Bid column when I sell shares.
Instead, I do my trade-volume distribution analysis first to identify the price point or range that got the biggest volume and the highest number of trades.
By doing so, I don’t just become realistic but also a strategic trader or investor.
I do not need to use the 1-minute, 3-minute, 5-minute, 10-minute, or any variant of an intraday chart. I just generate the statistics and chart using my Trade-Volume Distribution chart generator.
Why did I create my proprietary Trade-Volume Distribution chart?
- It helps me identify reversals, divergences, or false breakouts.
- It shows at a glance the prices that got the biggest volume with the highest number of trades.
- It helps me see if the majority of the volume is registered near the intraday high, intraday low, or median. The price bar at the top of the chart represents the intraday high. The price bar at the bottom represents the intraday low.
- It gives me a clue if cross trades happened at a certain price.
- This chart helps me decide where we should place our buying or selling price because we can see the prices that got the biggest volume with the highest number of trades at a glance.
