- Wall Street indices open lower
- US500 looks towards yesterday's lows
- GitLab surges after reporting profit for the first time
Wall Street indices launched today's cash session slightly lower. Declines in the United States come in spite of a rather solid European session, where major indices from the Old Continent trade higher. USD and US indices may see some more volatility around 3:00 pm GMT when two important reports from the United States are released - services ISM index for November as well as JOLTS report on job openings for October.

Price moves on the index have been mostly limited to the 4,535-4,580 pts range over the past two weeks. A pullback yesterday failed to reach the 4,550 pts support and the index recovered part of the losses later on. However, a new wave of selling can be seen today with US500 moving dangerously close to yesterday's daily lows. A break below the aforementioned 4,550 pts area would open the way for a test of the lower limit of the trading range at 4,535 pts.
