On the 3hour chart and other timeframes with considerably volume we can see a drastic decrease in demand as the price reach the last high of $18.
But on this unusual market we have the fact that is weekend and the banks dont do deposits or whitdraws so maybe the lack of demand is simply that theres no way to pump more dollars into mtgox yesterday and today.
In a classic stock trading situation this is a clear sign of an iminent top but on bitcoin case maybe is better to wait more pressure from the sellers because we are on a sunday and we cant know if theres no demand by that or if really is a top and we can have a correction soon.
Any thoughts on this?
Isnt necessary a bearish sign the fact that trading volume has been decreasing on the recent advance, and usually during the week end the volume is lower.
The thing to remember is that low volume on a rally to a lower top is only significant if it represents a real change in the market’s behavior. In particular, the previous high should have seen a fair amount of excitement and good volatility. If, after a top associated with lots of volatility and volume
the market should rally to a lower top on low volume, then one has a definite bearish indication. It is too early to consider today top as a final bull market top, we have to do first a correction and then a second lower top. This pattern happened in mid may, where after a second lower top with less volume the market did a correction down to 5.60
