A beginner asks: What does a volume spike mean?
Trading volumes in futures and spot markets often differ greatly. Futures volume includes a lot of high-frequency trading, so a volume spike doesn’t mean exactly the same thing in both markets.
Price movements are clearer when volume and price move in the same direction. When they diverge, it’s worth paying closer attention—for example, when the price hits a new high while volume keeps declining.
Learning to read indicators is easy. The hard part is sticking to your plan when emotions are running high.
