How to Use Delivery Dominated Volume Data

This page explains how to read and interpret the Delivery Dominated Volume table. This filter highlights stocks where a large portion of trading volume results in delivery, indicating conviction-based participation rather than short-term speculation.

Each row represents one stock for one trading day, evaluated by comparing current delivery behavior with both short-term and long-term historical trends.

Understanding Each Column

The stock symbol as listed on the exchange (e.g., NSE). Each symbol uniquely identifies a listed company.

Date

The trading date on which delivery-dominated activity was observed. All values in the row correspond to this trading session.

Close

The closing price of the stock on the given date.

  • Represents the final market consensus for the day
  • Used to evaluate whether high delivery is occurring with or without price movement

Volume

The total number of shares traded during the trading day.

  • Reflects overall market participation
  • Evaluated in conjunction with delivery volume for conviction analysis

Delivery Volume

The number of shares that resulted in actual delivery rather than intraday trades.

  • Represents positional buying and selling
  • High delivery volume indicates holding intent

Delivery %

The percentage of total traded volume that resulted in delivery.

  • Higher values indicate delivery-dominated trading
  • Suggests participation by strong hands

Recent Delivery % Avg (5d)

The average delivery percentage over the most recent 5 trading days.

  • Shows short-term delivery behavior
  • Helps identify whether delivery dominance is sustained or temporary

Historical Avg Delivery % (120d)

How to Read This Data Holistically

This filter should be interpreted by comparing short-term delivery behavior against the stock’s long-term delivery profile.

  • Delivery % and 5-day average significantly above 120-day average indicate abnormal conviction
  • High delivery with flat price suggests accumulation or absorption
  • High delivery with price movement suggests directional intent

What This Filter Indicates

  • Conviction-based participation dominating daily volume
  • Reduced speculative or intraday trading influence
  • Potential accumulation or distribution depending on price context

What This Filter Does Not Indicate

  • It is not a standalone buy or sell signal
  • It does not provide timing without price confirmation

Important Notes

  • This data reflects observed market behavior, not predictions
  • Context from price structure and broader market conditions is essential
  • False readings can occur during low-liquidity or event-driven sessions
