Here's the definition.

Pioneered by Joseph Granville, on-balance volume is calculated by adding volume to the previous value when the stock price closes higher than the previous price, and subtracting volume from the value when the stock closes lower than the previous price.

Interpretation

If the stock falls to a new low and the on-balance volume line does not, the indicator is interpreted as positive (bullish divergence).

If the stock rises to a new high and the on-balance volume line does not, the interpretation is negative (bearish divergence).
