Re-accumulation
By LuxAlgoMay 23, 2026
Re-accumulation tracks the pause that decides whether an uptrend earns another leg. When a stall high caps a qualifying ATR-normalized advance, the build opens a candidate range and starts the checklist behind re-accumulation: higher lows, quick support-zone recoveries, springs, rallies out-carrying reactions on volume, contracting down-move volume. Confirmation waits for a breakout holding with expanding participation; until then the bearish alternative stays live.
How to Trade the Re-accumulation?
- Range detected: the pause has lasted long enough to count as a range; the checklist goes live as context, not entry.
- Spring: a break below support recovering inside the spring window prints a Spring label, final-test behavior.
- Re-accumulation confirmed: the breakout holds the required closes above the range high with a bar at the volume multiple; box and label turn bullish.
- Support lost: closes held below support beyond the spring window invalidate. The pause turns out to have been distribution.
It sits with the other Wyckoff phase tools.
