Bracket/Market Busted Morning

UPDATE:!!!! SHORT LIST!!!!! (scan of stocks who's Stoch is above 80, and below its 50MA) Some great shorts on that list)

If you were long and had Mich State you are not happy this morning. Futures are down pre-market and Mich State killed your bracket.

Just a few Pre-Market charts to look while you enjoy your coffee or tea.(Not trying to steal Charts and Coffee's tagline either, Great site btw). The EUR/USD pair is at the bottom of its channel and possible support. A move up in the EUR/USD could be an excuse to drive equities up because our "EXPORTS" will be cheaper. A break of this channel could send the market to the downside more.


Here is a chart of the EUR/USD and SPX. Noticed the follow each other quite well(not exact) and currency pair is down 1.07% right now and dropping, futures have been moving along with this as well.


You should expect a gap down today, watch for the possibility of a trend-day to the downside. If your short (as I am) keep holding them. If your long, indicators and price action is suggesting to scale out.
We are only 14 points about 1% away on the /ES from 800 so watch out!
