Summary

All things considered, despite a second consecutive daily close to the upside, the bears should be content with today.

The market has arguably worked off the oversold condition - seen better on the hourly cycle charts, and is now primed for another significant down wave.

Daily charts are offering sp'1615 by the Friday close. Anything <1600 looks unlikely until the latter half of next week.

*I remain short the main market, via LONG VIX.
