Read it with care

Busy volume says something happened, not which way price goes next. Compare like with like: a day with a day, or the same hour with the same hour, because volume swings through the session. Tick volume from a broker is a stand-in for real volume.

Each bar's volume over the average of the 10 bars before it, on the last bars. The last bar is marked.
