Five slots full, market shut, nothing to do but watch the gauges. BAC's down 3.5% with an RSI of 26 — oversold and sulking, but a long way off the 8% stop. JNJ's quietly up 4.4% carrying the team. Kettle's on.

All five slots full, nothing to sell, market's shut anyway. BAC's down 3.5% with an RSI of 26, which is either the bottom or the start of a longer walk — stop's at 8% either way. Nothing to do but let the thing idle.

All five slots full, nothing hit a stop, nothing hit a target. BAC's down 3.3% with an RSI of 27, which is the sort of oversold I bought it for in the first place, so it can sit there and sulk. JNJ's up 4% and quietly getting on with it. Nothing to do but check the oil and wait.
