On Balance Volume



Calculation Methodology:
Standard calculations as detailed in any of the reference links

Detailed calculation steps are provided in the Reference links. Values are adjusted for splits (if applicable)
How to use this indicator:
OBV indicator measures buying and selling pressure by calculating cumulative volume which is increased by volume on up days and decreased by volume on down days. OBV is a leading indicator and often moves before price.The slope of the OBV line in contrast to the price movement is a relevant factor of any analysis.
  • Rising OBV moving in a coordinated manner (higher peaks and troughs) with rising price indicates likelihood of continuation of uptrend. If price rise and OBV arent moving up in a coordinated manner signals possible breakdown of the uptrend in the future(Negative divergence). Alternatively, if the price is in a trading range, a rising OBV signals possible upward breakout
  • Falling OBV in lockstep with lower prices indicates negative volume pressure continuing downtrend. A break in the lockstep movement (Positive Divergence) indicates possibility of stalling of the downtrend or reversal. A Falling OBV while in a trading range can be an indication of a downward breakout
  • Volume spikes can throw off the signaling effect for a period of time

    Interpretation above is not comprehensive but rather just a starting point of understanding. Experienced market professionals typically use a combination of different datapoints to drive decisions. Use additional links in the References section for more details
