And that's why this game is so hard...

SPX hit 5.06 % down for the week on that low print. Maybe enough fun for one week.

LOD 5,666.29

 

Bottomed at 666 in 03/2009.

 

Wild times - with press at 15:00ET. If they can break above yesterday's NY close, targets for longs could approach 5780-5800 (also London highs).

If they cannot hold above 5750 (top of today's reference zone), then shorts could test lows or at least back to 5710s.

Nice moves either way - pick a side:

 

This is still a 'take your money and run' type of market in my view. No need to marry any particular side...

 

If I may ask, what causes it to be a "reference zone," and how do you use it?
