The market is most likely anticipating a move higher, waiting for ES to find support . There are buyers for crude around 102.70. It's been so long since I could sit and watch all day I am questioning myself, and so I am
flat .
If I could script the move; New shorts get taken out above 103.30, then volume sellers appear, then I re-enter short.
But, we could also see 104 before the close.

I confirm that there are some issues with the data for CL. Charts are always different every time you reload historical data... And there is a gap in quotation

But if this market is going to turn, it's going to require some decent volume. This market could "float" above the high if sellers aren't ready.
