Zero Hedge Once Agin Nails the Volume Factor of the Equity Market
The intraday accumulation volume difference in the SPY is 146 million compared to an average of 220 million by EOD: a solid 33% below baseline. Today is the lowest volume day since April 26, when the market was near 2010 highs. If one assumes (simplistically) that 70% of normal daily volume is HFT and computer based, human traders have added -3% to today's trading volume. Everyone is now out watching football. Yet even with this abysmal volume, the market still was unable to stage a melt up: are even the algos fans of the Cariocas?
