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
