Good morning, and welcome to a new week.  Futures were strong overnight on news of an Irish bailout, but that has since faded, and we are presently below the close on Friday. I think you have to be cautious here, and Mercenary Trader laid it out well in two of their posts this weekend entitled Trading the Stealth Shift and Mind the Gaps. Check those out, and watch for me to highlight a few of my other favorite blogs in the coming weeks.
