Hello, I wanted to ask you how can you be able to speculate/spot / identify the periods of accumulation phases in which institutional accumulate at cheap price and distribute (to increase their stack)

How can you be able to see those accumulation phase? Which indicators do you use? I have red that the weekly volume can be useful, identifying candles with volume above the avereage (in a lateral market) can be useful. But my question is why?
Why volume's spikes (in a lateral market) are somentime synonimous of institutionals involved?
