Low Volume Thursday?

[VincentC]

Why was there such low volume today?

Looking at an S&P E-Mini's chart volume is like half of what it is normally??

Today was the largest volume day on record for NYSE stocks... not sure about the spooz volume.

I don't have any idea what you are looking at, but ES was over 2,700,000 contracts which is definitely above normal.

Ya this doesn't make sense to me.

Check out Thursday's volume on both of these charts

Maybe someone can make sense of this for me.
