It will show you immediately how much a stock traded vs. its average daily volume over the last 50 trading days. For example, a stock that trades 100, 000 shares on average will have a 50% Volume % Change if it trades 150, 000 shares on the day.
- Stocks closing at their highs for the day or gapping up in price can indicate strong demand.
- Companies buying back their stock in the open market and companies showing stock ownership by management can be positive indications.
- When a stock breaks out of a price consolidation area, trading volume should be at least 50% above its average daily volume, indicating strong demand.
