Buying volume was down on Friday, but there was a new MACD trigger 'buy' in the MACD and On-Balance-Volume, returning the index to a net bullish technical picture.

The closed at a high on heavier volume accumulation, and in doing so, negated what had been three days of scrappy action.

Technicals are net positive. Look for a series of small gains, similar to what's gone in November and December.

The closed at a new high, but without the higher volume accumulation of the Nasdaq.
