Upcoming Economic Release:
S&P500 Futures
S&P500 continues trading in a range, retesting the key resistance at 4180 region multiple times while not falling below 4050 region. Only with a break of the 4050 region will there be a stronger probability of more downside movement. Moreover, risk on assets are weak seasonally between February and March period.
