Comments:
The markets closed at session lows after gaining some strength in the first half on Monday. In fact, the S&P 500 had increased by nearly 0.6% at one stage, only to give up those gains.

Oil prices continued to rise but FX pairs were fairly quiet.

We did not buy into any stocks but as mentioned in a prior webinar, we will be looking to trim positions and adjust our portfolio by swinging the axe.

It might be another stand aside day.

Let’s go trade!
