The VIX futures had a strong move up after the market closed. the VIX rtfs/etns should open higher. The high volumes also correlate with improving RSI. It is not clear whether the SPX500 will keep falling with increasing volatility going forward. tntsunrise shows a possible rise in the SPX500 to a shorting zone, then a further fall. VXX may be traded in the...
The VIX is now at a 52 week low. This may be a one day event or a several week event. The following data are meant to help guide the decision as to when to buy/go long on the short term and midterm VIX related etfs/etfs. The VIX daily minimum and closing prices were downloaded from the CBOE website. The % of days with daily minimums and daily closing prices...
This might be an interesting pattern to monitor. Lately the SPY has been outperforming inverted VIX, unlike what happened at the start of the 2016 uptrend, where we observed a shift from outperformance to underperformance. The inverted VIX daily chart shows a daily downtrend is ongoing and suggests we'll see a 22.88% drop (22.88% jump in VIX) over the next few...
VIX S&P 500.Fibonacci Speed Resistance Fan. "Any tool to apply the Fibonacci sequence helps us find sections "roads" where the asset will move." FXstreet.com
This ratio looks like it wants to drop - in which case we should witness one of these three situations: 1. VIX rising more than DXY rising, 2. VIX falling less than DXY falling, 3. VIX rising plus DXY falling
Not much support below 20 day SMA IMO. This long term consolidation has created a huge resistance and suggests this isn't recovering soon.
There is a lot of Yen volatility right now which can precede a crash.I am long in Yen, Gold, GDX. I am mostly in cash.
It is hard to find something bullish about this chart. Follow A, B, C and you should be good!
In terms of systems theory, this is a great example where this may or may not go. This is a very stable signal rarely seen with random signals, such as the market. Therefore, math becomes more important than ever! And convergence/divergence becomes 'less' meaningful. I'm waiting for the green or red line to break and believe this will signal THE move. bullish or...
The following data is meant to help guide the decision as to when to buy/go long on the short term and midterm VIX related etfs/etfs. The VIX daily minimum and closing prices were downloaded from the CBOE website. The % of days with daily minimums and daily closing prices were then calculated in three over 3 time periods ((the last 12 1/2 years, the last 9...
I would love a retrace to take another long on XIV (short volatility). Price has continued higher than the 61.8% extension where I'd expected i of 3 to top. This despite S&P trading sideways. My price targets for wave 3 may actually be too low as wave 1 stretched beyond my initial targets (note 376.4% extension reached vs 200-261.8% expected).
VIX HAS BUILD A VERY SLOW RISING GREEN SUPPORT LINE OVER LAST 7 YEARS. So it is a buy and hold for long term (at least 2-4 years). Possible scenario Triangle playing out. Leap Call Options strategy may be good if deployed properly in volatile market.
The VIX (red line) is near 52 its week lows. I went long on VIXM on 7/21/2016. After further research I found that VXZ has higher volumes (more liquidity). VXZ and VIXM do not decay as fast as the leveraged ETFs/ETNs. They also react more slowly, peak more slowly, and fall more slowly then the VIX and the short term ETFs/ETNs. Looking further back in time,...
... for a .25 debit. The "Super Bull" consists of two parts -- a short put vertical (bullish assumption) for which you received a credit and a long call vertical (also bullish assumption), for which you pay a debit. In this case, I had to pay a little more for the long call vertical than I got in credit for the short put vertical. The notion here is to either...
This really, really doesn't make any sense. This low not seen since August 2015. You would think that the US economy is in great shape... Anybody that says there's not a bubble here is deluded. www.alphagenerate.com
