Kenapa 55% volume spike berakhir sideways dalam 48 jam
48 jam kemudian price sideways. Entry lu stuck di atas.
Ini bukan bad luck — ini volume trap.
Volume spike = transaksi banyak. Tapi itu bisa buyer vs seller balance — bukan buyer dominan.
STAT:
55% volume spike >2.5x average = price sideways atau turun dalam 48 jam.
Kenapa? Distribusi. Institusi exit. Retail masuk terlambat.

DISTRIBUTION VOLUME
Volume spike + price sideways/drop. Long wick atas. Seller absorbing.
→ TRAP

Next candle green — follow-through ada
Ini signal buyer aggressive + conviction tinggi.

Wick atas panjang — rejection di resistance
Next candle red/sideways — no follow-through
