Summary

closing hour action: choppy, if leaning weak. S/t momentum settled on the moderately high side, offering a provisional cyclical rollover.

… and that concludes the week. Despite a positive end to the week, it was a net bearish week. The s/t cyclical setup leans to the bears, although they could briefly tolerate up to around 6000, but it’d keep open a possible H/S structure.
