A little bit more of a stable session even though volume was light. Opening Range plays both worked again, and we had a nice clean winner in the ES after it lined up against the Pivot and made a cup and handle. Markets gapped down a little, filled early and then went flat before pushing up a bit in the second half of the day on 1.5 billion NASDAQ shares.

Net ticks: +9 ticks.
