Summary

The count on the hourly cycle...urghh..I don't know.

Does anyone want to count it as 5 down to 1779 ?
-

Regardless baring a daily close <1770...I still can't take these declines seriously.
-

2.07pm..market trying to confirm a possible spike-floor at 1779. Bulls need a daily close in the low 1800s, but that doesn't look viable until Thur/Friday..if at all this week.

Notable mover: FB +3%
-

VIX is looking maxed out..with a spiky top.

Still...bears have achieved two days in a row..in the 15s, thats pretty good.
-

2.32pm.. a very vain attempt at counting this nonsense.

An ABC..much like sub'2 in early November, yes?
