    Could this be another one of those times when a bullet changed history? The tragedy in the UK where a woman MP was killed this morning seems to have turned around markets in a very significant way. Clearly the markets think that it really hurts the Leave cause.

And the reversal candle in gold is  huge -- like it really believes that today was a game changer. Our own market also is trading like the fear has started to go away. Look at the reversal candle in the VXX which Steve mentioned.
