General Comments orValuable Insight

Less is more. I have no desire to get involved today.

Equity Indices held their respective yearly closes yesterday near the lows of the day.

Closing lower on the year in the Spu's & Nasd 100 would have me looking for lower levels.

GOOG, NFLX, IBB and some of the bigger momentum names all hit weekly support on yesterday's lows.

Those lows need to be breached for a bigger sell off.

Opening Range Time Frame Trading again today.

Short Term View...

Keep trading to make money. The opportunity will be in individual names.

Individual stocks look to be an easier read based off their own technical s.

We are Neutral Equities.
