Big winners again on the Opening Range plays as the market gapped up and then headed lower. The volume looked good and closed at 1.9 billion NASDAQ shares, but the range of the session was defined in the first hour on the NASDASQ and the Lower Pressure Threshold was the low on the both the ES and NQ.
Net ticks: +0 ticks.
