If you see the volume going up for a few days how do you know if you have an accumulation or a momentum? David

Gabard: Just looking at the logs on the site you mentioned(http://www.tradepbs.com/pbscgi/hstqtetd) only shows the volume. One thing that I don't understand from these logs or from other charts is that how to distinguish an accumulation from the distribution. Both of them will show higher volumes in trading. Second, the corelation in price and volume. Sometimes a) ask goes high on even low volume. b) ask goes high on high volume. Appreciate your comments. Thanks again in advance. Rav PS. Just to make sure I understand accumulation and distribution correctly. Accumulation ~ private investors(me, you and others here) buying from brokers. Distribution ~ is it private investors selling it to brokers ? ============================
