There's no need to say a lot here. First, prepare for damage control, however you do it. Many times, the market will gap down, only to recover somewhat in the 15-30 minutes after the open, then resume the downtrend. Be aware of narrow-range bars that traders might key off, as well as tick patterns.

However it turns out, it's hard to imagine that some bull meat won't be served up tomorrow, even with Federal Reserve intervention.
