Want to spot whether smart money is quietly buying up assets or preparing to exit? That's where the Accumulation/Distribution Rating comes in.
How It Works This indicator tracks institutional buying pressure against selling pressure over recent weeks by studying price movements and trading volume together. Pretty straightforward—it answers one key question:
Are whales accumulating positions right now, or are they dumping?
The Rating System The metric breaks down recent institutional behavior, giving you a window into what the big players are actually doing beneath surface-level price action. When volume spikes alongside price moves, you get genuine signals. Weak volume during rallies? That's a red flag that accumulation might be fake.

Volume is the real truth; price movements without volume are all fake, and whales' tricks are highly sophisticated.

Trading volume is the real truth; too many price scammers. Following the whales to eat is definitely the right move.

Oh no, it's the same old story. Trading volume is the real signal. Pumping without volume is a scam; I've seen too many.

Trading volume is the real truth; a price increase is useless without it. You need to see the whales' actual actions.

Volume is the real truth; price trends are just a facade. This time, you must truly learn to read A/D, or you'll just be following the crowd and taking the bait.
