Willpower

Good morning folks, 

We had a nice day yesterday even though oil experienced a bit of a pullback. We get oil inventory data today which could lead to some whipsaw action with oil and natural gas. We also have the ECB meeting today and there is likely to be more news developments with Greece. While we had a constructive day in several indexes we still remain range bound and there is still a lot of choppy action out there. Premarket we are slightly red and it is likely to be another choppy day.
