Summary

Another somewhat tiresome day of nothing. The only real action was in the precious metals market, which is having a natural major effect on the mining stocks.

It remains a marginal situation whilst we remain in the gap zone. Yet...those weekly charts remain outright bullish.

I'm guessing we still battle higher, after perhaps another day or two of price consolidation.
