To me, news is just the excuse, look at the action from morning, QQQ, IWM, XLY, all outperforming on a 15pt gap down day. I guess the stage was set. A close above 1280 is bullish I would say. Still, need to see the last 30 min. A lot have been happening lately in the final stretch so you never know...

"Somehow the fact that Greece has reached a deal on its austerity plan is supposed to be good for 100 pips on the EURUSD even though this is not news, and has been priced in for a long time. Furthermore it does absolutely nothing to dampen the fear and loathing that this plan will be met by the broader Greek population. But with market that's have absolutely no liquidity and monkeys controlling the buy and sell algos, one can only sit back and laugh."
I agree but we have to live with it.We will revisit the low when the hype wares off.
Agreed. And dollar is near low of the day. We'll see more down into the close. Based on candle formation, I see another down day tomorrow. (Based on yesterday's I went 80% short. I did not expect as much of a rebound this afternoon, though.) Our close will determine the extent of tomorrow's decline.

I agree. One can argue how the mkt spin a news is the way the mkt wants to go, regardless of how lame the news is. That said, the last 30 min can still change the whole landscape.
sorry, really no clue today. if bears can hold here until close, then still bears have a little better chances.

The crucial vote in Greek parliament is on 28th/29th and the Greek trade unions will do another round of protest. Till then I think it is a sell the bounce
