The markets gapped down and pushed a little lower, then the ES tried to reach up and fill the gap but couldn’t, and the range for the day was basically set within 90 minutes as the rest of the session was a waste of time and the last few hours were stuck on the VWAPs for both the ES and NQs on 1.65 billion NASDAQ shares.

Net ticks: +8 ticks.
