Summary

The closing hour was a real mess for most, swinging from 1823 to 1815..but closing at 1830. No doubt, it really annoyed many traders.

*I am on the sidelines overnight..and will see how the market trades early tomorrow. I will consider an index re-short in the 1840/45 zone..if we get that high. Similarly. long VIX in the 15s, would seem an 'interesting' level, if only for another day-trade.
