its very volatile, but i think we will have some sort of reversal today

SPX cash must hold 1378 in the next few minutes, then a higher high will confirm it imo

I don't think there will be scorch. I think there will be basing process. Then scorch. With the big part of the scorch escalating into Sept 18th.

BKX has made a higher high on the 15 minute chart.

i think today was a great ST trade opportunity on the long side but most of the selling climaxes get tested after the first trust rally we will see i have a mental stop below march lows, target SPX cash 1440

Not much institutional foot prints in the TICK, I would think this is only a bounce for now...

Yep. I think Mark also mentioned that the first buy is often a fakeout. Still, this might be tradable if it makes a higher low. I'm flat. These moves are too fast and too big for me to trade well. Just as likely to get myself killed as make money.
