But, LC,
if last 3 trade days of year are usually directional (your observation if I remember correctly), then 852 has to break, doesn't it?
or do you think the bulls will stampede to reverse today's action (I don't).

If 3rd last day is up (open to close), then you would likely see the 2nd last day and the final trading day of the year are up too. And vice versa for 3rd last day as a down day.
Today, if ignoring all other factors, that it is not over yet, we do not know if we are going to end up with an up day or not.
BUT, this morning we did have trend sell quality all over the place ... Opening range tested previous day high and failed, then down side breakout, failed to hold S1, etc. So yes, 52 should break and we are likely getting 3 down days in a row.
p.s. I am short since open thus very very bias
Edit: I do not usually trade during the last few days of the year, but this morning the setup was too good to say pass.
