Before checking your position, first understand trading volume.
When volume surges, bid-ask spreads and slippage often widen too, so entering or exiting with market orders may cost more.
I treat unusual trading volume as a signal to pay attention, not a reason to act immediately. Let the candlesticks confirm the direction.
Don’t change your own pace based on a single number, and above all, don’t gamble borrowed money on a particular reading.
