Nigerian stocks currently trading like hotcakes

These stocks are more popular than Britney right now, having the highest trading volumes on the Nigerian stock market. Huge volumes tend to appear in tandem with strong price levels and pivot points, and are often the result of a large number of orders being filled on certain price levels, when big players enter the market. As any trader knows, where there's activity, there's the potential for volatility, and where there's volatility, there's the potential for profit. So go get 'em, tiger.
