US equities are seemingly content to see yet another hour of minor chop into the daily close. Metals are settling lower for the third consecutive day, Gold -$9. Oil vainly attempted a 2% rally... only to turn back negative... arguably already confirming the baby bear flag.

Summary
Little to add... on what is merely another day of minor chop.. stuck in an increasingly tight range... 2086/74... a mere 0.6%.

*Oil remains an alluring trade to consider. There is a particularly attractive price-gap zone, which looks set to be hit/filled tomorrow morning. If the mood takes me... I'll take that level.. and hold long across next week.
notable weakness, AA -4.2%... but more on that one after the close.

3.06pm... another attempt to break resistance... sp'2088... but its difficult to see why we'd break higher today... overall price action remains very subdued.
Clearly though.. a daily close in the 2090s would be VERY bullish for the weeks ahead.. if achieved.
3.23pm... sp'2090... well, its looking like bulls win another round.. as a truck load of short-stops are no doubt getting hit.
VIX breaking lower, -4% in the 13.40s.
