browsfan : from an intraday aproach its ok what you say, now its interesting to see sometimes the big picture too... and volume has a lot to say on this big picture... it even told us that there was an inminent downmove as there was no more important volume on the previous top up moves... I dont know if you looked this video
http://www.traderslaboratory.com/for...lume-1286.html it can be very usefull to know in witch overall context your small intraday trading can be (I trade a 22 tick chart, very small trading) but now I take into acct this daily context information, I can know more the general bias of the market... cheers Walter.
