Simple chart - using VIX moving average crosses can help you time when to sell in markets quite well. I like using exponential moving averages, and using the 15 day and 45 day works really well historically. In short, if you're bearish, watch when the 15 day EMA of the VIX index crosses higher than the 45 day EMA for your signal to sell.
