What I can't quite figure out is that in terms of net positive shares
purchased since the low is now higher as of Friday than the number of
net sold shares from the October 8th top to the October 28 low..
I don't get, at least quantitatively, where they are hiding it....
I don't disagree that the market could take a serious fall, It seems to
me that that the volume drop is disproportionatly small relative to the
price drop.

Perhaps this is the sell signal.. the volume is just about where it was
in October 8.
