On June 13, 2024 it was noted that the Dow continues to move in a pattern similar to the last half of 2021. To put this into context, the first Dow chart (2024) includes turning points that align with the second chart (2021). The last chart identifies time frames where very large block trades occurred. Note that very large block trading does not necessarily equate to high volume trading days.
“Big blocks at the tops and bottoms of all moves become larger and more frequent depending on the duration and precipitousness of the move.”
Richard Ney, Making it in the Market, 1975, page 89
