Ok technicians, I am seeing a higher high here on the daily chart.. As long as we do not touch 24.11 ( preferrably even 25.91) we might be in an uptrend there...

I would watch for the opening range 30 min low to not be violated on the SPY today... If we move below 133.30 though, I am going short ( with a s/l of course) http://bp3.blogger.com/_9SoEE9d_aQo/R5lE8FcwtDI/AAAAAAAAABk/1iqxPD-8g7A/s1600/spy.gif
