When supply fathoms out that demand is dwindling and looks down to see that they've run off a cliff...

Ignore Volume at your perilNote
With less than 24 hours to go (before the end of the month) this is still going to be the lowest monthly volume since January. Volume is a proxy for pressure and in this case because prices have fallen we can confirm what was observed in prior months that buying pressure is less than selling pressure, however, given the relatively low volume we can see that selling pressure isn't yet at panic levels. Yet, being the optimum word in that last sentence, This market has rolled over slowly, giving the astute plenty of time to exit.Note
The month of May saw price collapse producing the largest spread bar to date with the 4th highest volume on the chart. The close, off the low, but still in the bottom third indicates that at least temporarily demand has reentered the market.The fact that the volume wasn't higher indicates that there wasn't complete panic, however it may also have been a symptom of the fact that many exchanges experienced difficulties keeping up with the order flow.
