⚡️Episode 76: On-Balance Volume (OBV) – Uncover Hidden Whale Moves! 🐋📊
Want to detect if someone is silently accumulating or dumping before the breakout?
OBV reveals smart money movements even when price action is flat! 🔥
📊 What is the OBV indicator?
It’s a momentum indicator based on volume flow.
It combines price direction with trading volume to show the strength behind a move.
Here’s how it works:
If price closes higher → today’s volume is added to OBV
If price closes lower → today’s volume is subtracted from OBV
🔍 Why does it matter?
Because volume comes before price!
If OBV is rising while price is flat → possible stealth accumulation
If OBV is falling while price rises → possible hidden distribution
🔥 Best uses:
🔸 Spot hidden accumulation/distribution
🔸 Confirm or invalidate trends (via Divergence)
🔸 Predict explosive price moves before they happen
⚠️ Caution:
❌ OBV doesn’t give exact buy/sell signals
❌ Always use it with confirmation tools like RSI, MACD, or candlestick patterns
