Canada's TSX Index Teeters At Major Support/Restistance

Crude Oil Down 60% Since Mid-June 2014

A breakout and hold above the reverse H&S pattern neckline around 57.00 would be significant, inasmuch as we see a confluence of major Fibonacci, channel, and price resistance at that level. I'd call that Oil's sweet spot.
The Surprising FAANG Powerhouse Stock
Of the five FAANG Tech stocks, Netflix has enormously outperformed its counterparts on a percentage-gained basis, from the beginning of 2013 onward. NFLX continues to keep pace, percentage-wise, with the other four.

Should the Euro break and hold above near-term resistance at 1.1250, it's conceivable that it could reach the next level at 1.1500.
2nd Quarter Indecision On SPX:VIX Ratio
The current Q2 candle on the SPX:VIX ratio chart is a high-wave candle and its range is 96 points. This is signalling extreme indecision in support (or not) going forward for equities in the face of rising high volatility.
