1/2 position taken off with First Profit taken today at 44.7
Oil's taking a pause but a key bearish factor is that despite a very bullish market, oil is not heading up.
I expect a slight bounce up at this point if current SPX bullishness stays on track, but it may only be a chance to add on more to the short position.
SL adjusted to 48.2 (high of previous long candle)
