Let’s talk about $TIA : volume suddenly surged on the 1-hour chart, with trading volume at 3.8 times the usual level and price down 1.35%.
I don’t focus on the first candle. I watch the second candlestick after the volume spike: if it can hold, that’s the real direction; if it can’t, the move was a one-off.
How do you usually handle a volume spike?

There’s a lot of volatility, so manage your leverage carefully.
