We had doji patterns made on the indices yesterday so I'm watching yesterday's highs for a confirmation of a reversal.

Intraday Updates:
- 10:30 The market's been straight up since the open and I'm considering shutting it down for the day. I never do well on days like this b/c the market usually goes sideways (at best) for the rest of the day after such a strong open
