Volume

Recap on last week
Week closed at  180.12 UP from previous week of 177.12

With fed continuing it's current stance of buying bonds; festive season around the corner; portfolio pumping and fund house having pressure to outperform the indexes before the year come to an end. There's definitely more thrust upside, but who will be the last to catch the hot potato.


VIX are really at a complacence level that it went below 13 points on Fri before picking up and closing above 13

Accuracy : 11/25
