The bottom line, the short-term trend is up. I hold no position overnight.

Mixed seasonality for tomorrow, on one hand we have so called bullish Friday while on the other hand, according to Stock Trader’s Almanac, day before Presidents Day weekend, SPX down 16 of last 19 and February Expiration Day, Dow down 7 of last 11. I’m a little little bit leaning toward the bearish side though.
