The markets gapped up a little, filled early, and spent lunch time around even. We swept lower after lunch, then popped back up to the UBreak on the ES in the last hour before settling almost even for the day on 2.2 billion NASDAQ shares. The Opening Range plays swept one way first before working the other.

Net ticks: -9.5 ticks.
