Thought I'd have a peek at what's going on, don't
expect much today.
Volume at 0815 Hrs is usually around 50/100 million after
the market has been open for 15 mins.
Today it was........ 4 Million. :-)
Says it all really.
Volatility can occur in low volume scenarios where a few
trades can distort the market. So if any one has a particular
buy or sell price that they are looking for in an individual
stock, you may get lucky on a day like this.
Spreads won't be very good for actual day trading, so maybe
sticking to the index at a 3 point spread may be the way
to go if any particular level takes your fancy.
Melnibone.

is making heavy weather in trying to break 4457.
Coincidently, as well as 4457 being R1 it is also
the last trading day's high.
Could be a nice pullback in the last hour.

The Dow seems to be holding just above r3 - 103400, the big question is will it go up, hold or fall back. Not long to go now.
