@FourFngrsTradng *new high

[Alvin T. @AlvinTWrites]

@FourFngrsTradng Thanks Frankie. Are you looking for a mew high exceeding the 25 March highs or just “a high” after we bottom next week? (Which is looking like 4800-5200 SPX)

[Alvin T. @AlvinTWrites]

@FourFngrsTradng Thanks Frankie. Any changes with the new low in futures?

[Japonica @JaponicaPub]
