Recently, one of our VIP members mentioned he had great success with using Unusual Volume spikes for spotting and confirming breakouts.
When asset prices move up on huge volumes, that shows conviction from traders. It’s a sign that traders are converging on this trade, they’re piling in.
That strength is often followed by further strength, so if we can jump in early enough, we can ride that momentum for nice gains. Traders move in heards.
altFINS has a pre-set market scan to easily spot such situations across 2,000+ assets.
Here’s a link to live results of the market scan and here’s a quick video tutorial.
It identifies assets where trading volume increased 100% or more versus prior 10 days average, and price is trading up 5% or more
You can use this market scan for all time intervals (15m, 1h, 4h, 12h, 1d). Just follow the link to the market scan and then change the interval setting.
And we suggest you save this scan for future reuse. You can also create an alert to get notifications of assets that fit this scan.
