The stock market indices suffered another nasty session, except for theTheTechTrader.com, which looked good and channeled up nicely. That includes some of the natural gas ETFs, particularly the UGAZ. But the day was an ugly one.

The day started out with a gap down, and then 3-wave corrective move to fill the declining topsline, and then they rolled over again in a 3-wave plunge. They took out the lows slightly, then snapped back after the FOMC, by came down again into the close.

Checking the TheTechTrader.com percent-gain leaderboard, swing trade Horizon Pharma, Inc. (HZNP) was fabulous today, up 1.55 to 10.05, or 18%, on 9.6 million shares. That was the big outstanding plus gainer on our board today.

Stepping back and reviewing the hourly chart patterns, the indices were real choppy today, but down. They opened with a big gap down, rallied back and took back the entire loss on the Nasdaq 100, only to roll over in the afternoon and give it all back, and then some, to close with sharp losses on the sessions, on negative technicals.

Let's see how it goes tomorrow.

Good Trading!
