Technical Notes | $JCT | 5-minute trading volume up 9.1x | Price up 2.85%
Definition: Unusual trading activity often shows up before price movements, so many people treat a sudden surge in volume as a signal to watch a coin. You’ll have to wait for the candlesticks to form to see which way it goes.
Common interpretation: If volume quickly falls back after a one-off spike, it was probably just a brief flurry of activity. If elevated trading volume is sustained, it may be more meaningful.
Any indicator is only a summary of past market activity; the market can always move in the opposite direction.
For record-keeping and sharing only—not trading advice.
