SP 500 and NDX Futures Daily Charts - Light Trade, Tech Leads

"But what is liberty without wisdom, and without virtue? It is the greatest of all possible evils; for it is folly, vice, and madness, without tuition or restraint."

Global Corporate Brands on 'Black Friday'

"One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them."

Gold Daily and Silver Weekly Charts - Quiet Holiday Trade

As the trading volume dwindles into the US holiday, I will join those who have already left the market in the capable hands of their junior staff.

Most likely they will shove the price around the plate a bit, and then leave it at some level not far from where it has already been.

Metals are under modest 'pressure' if you can call what transpires on the Comex as having any weight.

The December contract should be rolling over, with those more determined to play with the idea of delivery hanging on.

I may update some things later night. But for now a last trip to the market, and the effort to make visitors welcome from their travels home.

Happy Holidays for all those in the US, and for the rest of world, please try your best to carry on without Wall Street's guidance and direction.

Have a pleasant evening. See you Thursday night.

If there are any significant developments in the remainder of the day I will true up the charts on Friday.

Have a pleasant evening.

"Straddling the top of the world, one foot in China and the other in Nepal, I cleared the ice from my oxygen mask, hunched a shoulder against the wind, and stared absently down at the vastness of Tibet."

Jon Krakauer

Today had all the appearance of the post Comex option expiry 'gut check' that seems to be a new tradition in the markets.

Have a pleasant evening.
