Estimating option buys/sells using price and volume

I saw a video a while back that explained a general rule: price up + volume up = buyers & price down + volume up = sellers. The video didn’t mention IV, which I suppose could better estimate buys/sells of a specific contract.

Any validity to the claim? And does anyone know of a better estimate?
