I am tempted to fade this, but feel like I will get run over if I do.

A lot of shorts have already been taken out, up into the 93.25 area is clear except for today's action...The rally feels weak so far...Every indicator except a daily says "buy", and I don't believe them. Not sure what my problem is and will let my -$20 ride until I do.

Visually, this bar is beautiful, typically I would be all over it

Oil is waiting for ES to turn... That's what it looks like anyway. Not interested.

They are buying it because they don't know what else to do.

That made me laugh. Thanks for the entertainment, nothing else going on.

The buy would have been a stop out. If I finish the day down $20 I am giving myself the penny anyway.
