While trading SnP Futures, wouldn't you want to combine Open Interest with Volume? Volume may be rising with O.I. dropping, no?

GZ, Here is the Dow Johns chart for the last three months: If you look at the volume spike highlighted in red - it happened on a down day and IMHO confirmation of the top. Now we see the volumes highlighted in yellow which go down-down-down. And the last spike on Friday was on the low volume as well. Under normal circumstances, I would make a SELL call. MACD also supports this conclusion. But we have here a wild card - Feds! If you look at the previous plateau - highlighted in blue, it also had a high spike in volume highlighted in green. And it even had some downside movement and after that a reversal. So my conclusion: I would not go LONG and I'll wait for the second spike of high volume on a down day. And only when I'll go SHORT. But when again, if I play (as you do) NT - here is plenty of intermediate opportunities. About PM - I'd be afraid to go short on silver below $29/oz. Regards
