Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend. Today is real session in a hot second and crude used the long weekend to go get 94.73, then handed most of it back before the pit even opened. Gold went down and tagged 4429.40, the heaviest price September has traded, and found a bid on it. ES and NQ both ran the full width from last week’s value ceiling to August’s value floor in the dark and are back in the middle of Monday’s holiday range like none of it happened. I lean long ES while 7703 holds and NQ keeps 29600. Not much to do as equities are stuck in the same spot we’ve sat in since April. I’m ready for something to happen.
