Summary
Little to add.
Price structure on the smaller hourly cycle is looking like a mini castle top - as I call them. Its a touch bearish, but really, daily/weekly cycles look bullish into tomorrow.
Next chance for the equity bears looks to be Wed'... the next EIA report..., and the Durables goods and GDP on Thurs/Friday respectively... won't likely be pretty.
