Summary

*first... yes, my sub' site is offline. I've no idea why. Am waiting to hear back from my host. Until then.... here we shall reside!
-

Last week ended on a mixed note, if settling fractionally positive. S/t momentum settled on the high side.

Overnight futures have built significant gains, as the futures wheel has been spinning since overnight Sunday. We're set to open in the 3730s... the lower end of purple gap.

At best, the bulls might hold things into late Wed'. Thursday will inherently favour the bears, whilst Friday would then be inclined to bounce... if with yet another lower high.
