Summary of Anna Coulling's A Complete Guide To Volume Price Analysis

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Volume Price Analysis is a technique that has been around for over 100 years. It was the foundation stone on which huge personal fortunes were created, and iconic institutions were built. It can be applied to every market. #2 Charles Dow was the founder of technical analysis, and his principle was that volume confirmed trends in price. He believed that if a price was moving on low volume, then there could be many different reasons. However, when a price move was associated with high or rising volume, this was a valid move. #3 The Richard Wyckoff Method, which was a correspondence course, remains the blueprint which all Wall Street investment banks use today. It is a simple economic principle of supply and demand, and Wyckoff believed that by observing the price volume relationship, it was possible to forecast future market direction. #4 The second law states that in order to have an effect, you must first have a cause, and the effect will be in direct proportion to the cause. The simplest analogy is of a wave at sea. A large wave hitting a vessel will see the ship roll violently, whereas a small wave would have little or no effect.
