Best to buy sell quickly on contra if profit arise! Situation simply not good! Today artificially close higher with very little volume! Only 1.2 billions the lowest this year! Caution! Be in cash position unless counters proven uptrending! Stagnant or downtrending stocks better cut position! Lately stocks tends to go up and die out quite fast! This is due to lack of volume! Another worry, theres still pocket of foreign holdings which can be liquidated in event outflow surge! Its great for traders making rounds on same counters but wasteful for others with medium term view!
