Blue bars depict the Volumetric Profile for various price levels of Ciena Corporation. The thick orange line is the Volumetric Price and the maroon line is the Secular Price. General Volumetric Health is 3 on a scale from 1 (best) to 3 (worst), because the price at $14 is below both the Volumetric and the Secular lines, indicating an issue that has entirely lost reputation in the market. Almost no volumetric support exists underneath the current price. |

| Here, the horizontal lines mark the points of Maximum Negative Slope in the Volumetric Profile. These strata are known to act as resistance levels against upward movement, and are sometimes associated with yearly and quarterly tops. Also, as is typical of resistance levels, they may do double duty as support, but that is not the typical case. |
