- Volume should increase in the direction of the current trend, for it to be sustained
- Volume often precedes price, so a reducing volume in an uptrend may precede a reversal
- Divergences between volume indicators and the price chart suggest trouble
- Increasing open interest in an uptrend or down trend supports the trend
- Falling open interest in either trend suggests the trend will weaken
- High open interest can intensify any breakouts
- A reversal day sets a new high or low, in trend, and retraces to close less than the previous day
- Breakaway gaps occur on breakouts, and show a strong move
- Runaway gaps occur in a freely moving trend, and may mark the halfway position
- Exhaustion gaps mark the end of a trend, and are soon filled
