$PARTI 15-minute turnover was about $2.27 million, 12 times the previous average; prices rose 5.95% over the same period.
Let's use this figure to talk about surges in trading volume.
When trading volume surges, order book spreads and slippage often widen, so entering or exiting with market orders can be costly.
Sometimes a surge in volume is driven by a wave of liquidations. Liquidation orders are forced trades, so this kind of volume has a different meaning from buying and selling initiated by traders. You need to assess it alongside liquidation data.
Indicators can fail, but stop-losses shouldn’t be left out: thinking in advance about what to do if your assessment is wrong matters more than guessing correctly.
