Volume

Volume affects too areas. Low average volumes specify that there is less liquidity in the stock as less buyers and sellers are willing to hold that stock. Usually, a stock that is thinly traded is a small company.

However, on a day that volume fluctuates rapidly, it can result in either an up-tick or a down-tick as the supply and demand of the stock are affected.
