 just hit $735, which I had mentioned was a key level this morning. After losing support at $740, it sold off rather quickly. $735 is a pretty significant level; we can expect a few tests/chop at it, especially as we enter lunch."

Interesting how we came exactly to that short term support and are holding it. Bears need a gap down tomorrow. Bulls need to fill that bear gap.

Turbulence and best to stay away from high premiums and also better to add time on rotation/relative strength sectors."
