S&P 500 low on Dec 21st 1105.31
We mentioned in this week's summary that we should not forget these gaps - looks like the market yearns to fill the first green circle (gap) today.

This was the chart coming into the week....
And the chart now... what a striking difference in 4 days.
Best case for bulls is that first gap fills and then a flurry of SPY buy orders show up (out of the blue of course - as has been the case for 10 months) to close the S&P 500 over 1115. Outside of that scenario, caution remains in order.
EDIT - as I typed that piece the market slunk to 1104.94 and now bouncing quite sharply. The computers are working on overdrive today.
