Summary

An interesting closing hour, but we STILL remain within the broad uptrend.

Bears need a close <1640 tomorrow, and I find that difficult to believe, not least since its a 5bn pomo day.

*I hold SLV short overnight, seeking the 19s, although I realise that is a very bold target. Weekly/monthly charts do support it though.
