Ecopro showed a strong upward trend in Nextrade (NXT) trading on the 21st, following the regular trading session.

Just before market close, around 7:59:57 PM, small-scale trades occurred consecutively, including a transaction of 47 shares at 76,100 won. During this period, Ecopro's stock price fluctuated between 76,100 and around 76,200 won. The buy/sell strength in the most recent trading interval recorded 102, indicating a slight dominance of buy orders.

However, the order book sent a different signal from the stock's upward movement. Sell orders stood at 35,980 shares, which was 15,340 shares more than buy orders (20,640 shares). This suggests that even as the price rises, a significant amount of sell-side liquidity is waiting at upper price levels.

Looking at trades by brokerage desk, Kiwoom Securities recorded the highest trading volume on both sides, with 269,732 shares sold and 229,106 shares bought. Korea Investment Securities recorded 149,142 shares sold and 165,117 shares bought. Foreign desks recorded 75,411 shares sold and 51,944 shares bought, showing a sell-side dominance of 23,467 shares.

However, since brokerage desk tallies may not correspond to the actual investor entities, this should not be taken as a definitive indicator of overall foreign investor trading direction.

Rather than prematurely judging a trend reversal based solely on short-term price increases, it is necessary to comprehensively review additional data such as regular market trading volume, supply and demand by investor type, and company disclosures.
