Rising price, falling volume...not bullish

Falling volume is how bull markets are made.

To look for bottoms, you want to see heavy volume on red days, not green days.

Also...

Falling volume is how bear markets are made.

To look for tops, you want to see heavy volume on green days, not red days.


Bigger questions...
what is the basis used for determining "bottom", "falling", "heavy", and "top"?
do the above rules apply to all time frames?
 
Over the past 20 years, I've learned that technical analysis is subjective. It all depends on the prevailing trend. Trade in the direction of the prevailing trend. Swim with the current. Look for chart setups in the direction of the prevailing trend.

Rising prices counter to the prevailing trend with weaker and weaker volume is IMO very bearish. Im pointing it out trying to help. Your argument is without merit.
Nope. The charts and data show you're completely wrong. But if you're more interested in "being right" than reality, have at it.

The charts and data are correct, I think what you meant to say was your interpretation of the charts and data is completely wrong. But I'm going to let you make your case.

When you step into something be better prepared next time.

No, I'm not wasting time debating with someone who's been on here for years and hasn't noticed the most basic of chart patterns. Do the work yourself. Look at every recovery from, say 5% or greater corrections in the last 20 years. Look at bullish markets from 2003-2007 and 2009 to the present and notice how often the indexes climb higher on low volume...and how the volume is strongest on selloffs. There have even been many discussions here about it (staring in the 2003-20007 period).
