There was a time when I ignored volume completely in my trading. I focused only on price action and missed out on crucial confirmations. But this month, I learned how powerful volume analysis can be. I was watching a consolidation on a popular altcoin. The price was stuck in a range for days. Then suddenly, a massive spike in volume came in, followed by a breakout candle. That was my cue. I entered immediately, keeping my stop below the breakout zone. The price exploded upwards, and the volume confirmed the strength of the move. This was a game-changer. Since then, I’ve made volume a core part of my trading system. It shows conviction, reveals accumulation, and confirms breakouts. Price without volume is like a car without fuel — it might roll, but it won’t go far. Now, before every trade, I ask: “Is the volume backing this move?” If the answer is no, I wait. That single filter has saved me from countless fakeouts.
