Selling options for income is one of the best conservative ways to increase returns. When I sell an option contract, I am selling a financial insurance product to the market. I am acting as the underwriter of the policy. For this particular market, I am selling the policy with the coverage at a strong support level. Please keep in mind that this market is...
10/20 EMA crossed in January 2015. A similar cross happened in June 2007, a couple of months ahead of 2007 market peak. Also note both 10 and 20 EMA are pointing upward, suggesting VIX may go even higher from here (so buckle up!)
VIX setting up for a monthly northward breakout. This could be the third time this type of move occurs in the last 8 years. Assuming 30 target is hit, expect some more base building before higher levels. However the VIX currently has plenty of cause to get a big run going.
I am looking at the weekly $VIX chart. Now this pattern catching my eyes. This is a weekly bullish pattern and it's holding the twenty moving average. We might see another week or maybe 2 of consolidation before a breakout imo. In this video I am covering my trading levels: youtu.be

The VX experienced a bit of profittaking Friday, but has rebounded somewhat in today's session so far. The uptrend support line connecting the lows from July, August and last week appears to be holding. The daily RSI and Stochastics are now turning up, and should be followed by a daily MACD positive crossover shortly. Weekly RSI and Stochastics are trying to...
Using the scaled VIX Fix here. The proxy might be more useful in calling major bottoms, and the ratio (and it's MA) seems to give some indication at ratio<2 or so.
Just a question '' Are the Markets FINALLY BROKEN?'
DOWI is still in the consolidation phase. With the end of QE3, and despite the low interest rate, there is no appetite for any risk. The market is taking its profit. There is yet nothing to fuel the market. The red trend line is the medium term trend line. MArket will decline until FED's decide to increase its interest rate. Therefore, the next step may very...
VIX right now is between two trend lines and may break out or bounce in between. Which path market chooses will have big impact on trading.
Market is extremely oversold & fear at a 2 year high as indicated by the VIX. The opportune moment o have shorted this wave has past and we could face a potential technical bounce while the S&P 500 holds above 1851 level. Caution adding into existing shorts or establishing a new one here.
As you can see the "First sign of deep shit trouble" indicator is moving into the alarming area. The chart is only marginally changed from the first one (link below). But the VIX now NOT long anymore, and not yet short. Neutral with potential, I would say.
As we have foreseen in the previous studies, the market is acknowledging the end of FED's QE3 program. There is still cheap money in the market i.e low interest rate, but as we have foreseen, ECB's TLTRO and ABS is not profiting to US market contrary to QE3 which has benefited to everybody including the European market. The correction process before SPX starts to...
With the end of FED's QE3, market are gaining more and more volatility. This does not mean that market will crash, but there will be more heavy movement, and the swing frequency will be bigger. FED's QE was inhibiting the market, that is why at the highest level of QE3, VIX was as low as 10... There is also more uncertainties in the market, baring in mind the...
Volatility is increasing and it is good for swing traders. It is also good to see that the market is coming back to a normal stance, where Central banks are less intervening, or that there intervention is not effective anymore, because at the end of the day, for those who believe like me in liberal economy, you should really do let buyers and sellers fixing the...
