Good morning. Futures are moderately lower, sp -5pts, we're set to open at 1963, which is still a very significant 38pts above yesterday mornings low. Metals are climbing, Gold +$7, whilst Oil is still unable to rally, -0.6%.

Well, after yesterday afternoons madness, it is difficult to know what to say. Even if somehow we could close in the 1940s today, it would still make a very difficult situation for those who believe further weakness is still possible.
Anyway, the only important near term resistance left now is sp'1977

9.38am... Opening weakness, but really, not much downside pressure..and with a cluster of support around 1960...bulls are so far holding up very well.
Notable strength, airlines, UAL +6%... after all.. now that Ebola is cured... nothing to worry about global air travel. Oh wait....
9.45am.. Opening candle on the VIX turns black.... this bodes badly for bears... there just isn't any downside power right now.
