I dont follow volume intraday, but overall it wasnt any special either way.. I think actually whats more important is watching the volume during the day on the dips/rallies which gives a better idea of just where the pressure points are : )

Whoever said heavy is wrong. It was 1.63 billion on COMPX and is included in my last five days trading comparison with last year. <Are we both right or both wrong?> on the basis of a major volume fall compared to last year i very right:) Also rising prices in low volume is bearish, in my view, but rising prices with increasing volume is bullish (unless it is a ONE DAY WONDER caused by a massive short squeeze). We have few new money buyers/ much old money churn/ and few sellers, imo (as government keeps them in by the tease up action, as they SLOWLY drown). The inability for the majority to cut and run and cut their losses during these bear rallies will cost them dearly, dreadfully. My broker says the common practice of amateur investors that manage their own money is to sell their winners far too soon and hold their losers( they can't cope selling at a loss) until, voila, their whole portfolio is NOTHING but big losers). We have a lot of people out there that have been getting poorer and poorer and poorer because they couldn't sell at a 10% loss,or at 15%loss, SO NOW THEY ARE DOWN 70% and still listening to Kudlow,AJC,Lynch("only losers sell", lynch) and Rukheyser(sp?). They will sell when they have virtually nothing left, this the pathetic reality of the overall, in the majority, human behavoir----these people should never have invested in the first place. So volume tells me we still have a ton of losers out their not selliing, but less and less averaging down, because they are dip exhausted and/or broke. i feel that we had PPT day today.(i think the imminent war the primary motive to prop the market) Just like on the last Employment Report day. Also i think the E.R. report is the BEST they could manage to deliver, i feel it is worse than that, for sure. Outside of that i have no negative views,LOl! max
