Price Action & Psychology - Pullback, accumulation

Hello !

Key points :
  • Accumulation zone
  • Halfway retracement
  • Volume uptrend > volume downtrend


Currently, I feel like there's an accumulation going on. In fact, we have some clues that buyers were strong :

1) we see several spikes in volume
2) the bodies of the candlesticks grew wider the more the trend advanced

As you can see, we've had a little 1-candle pullback at first. Then, the trend resumed, the stock encountered a resistance (previous support on the left side) and pulled back halfway before accumulating.

Obviously, from a realistic point of view, the stock could go any way from here. But, as always, we're trying to stack the probabilities in our favor.

During the accumulation, the volume was relatively "normal", except for that spike I highlighted. The thing is, despite the high volume, the price didn't move. This tells us that sellers are not able to win the fight against buyers (since we're pulling back from an uptrend movement, buyers are still dominating).

Thanks for reading and if you have suggestions or want to discuss the idea, just leave a comment, I'll be happy to answer.
