Ill be shocked if spy goes bellow 200ma on 10 min chart You were sounding kinda spooked on the market about 3 or 4 days ago? Changed your mind hmm.. I don't blame you, it is like standing in front of the tide. I had a bad feeling on that close and the market gapped up. Bad feeling gone.

I believe that I just saw vix = 9.30 . The lowest vix ever, as far as I know.
Mist says not, but this is the lowest I ever saw

Even with all this complacency, it still looks like SP wants 2500 and VXX 11
They say August is a good month for a crash we'll see...
have a good weekend all -- ttyl

Yesterday was the 2nd lowest all-time daily close in VIX ever @ 9.36. The only other lower close was 12/22/93 @ 9.31.
However, what many don't know is that from 1986 (when VIX was first tracked) until September 2003, spot VIX tracked the S&P 100 options, not the S&P 500 options as it does now. This earlier, original VIX is now known as VXO.
VXO is at an extreme all-time low on all time frames. The previous all-time low was 8.36 back in '14. VXO made a LOD yesterday at 7.49 and closed at 7.77.
Now that's some complacency!

I have my portfolio full on bear and can manage a move to SP2500, VXX 11. Anything beyond that without a pullback and I'm going to be feeling it.
I'm thinking of opening another trading account because I miss trading everyday.
I would just leave portfolio on Bear and trade with new account.

I'm thinking of opening another trading account because I miss trading everyday. I would just leave portfolio on Bear and trade with new account. That's what I was talking about yesterday. Different time frames makes shorting tvix scalps and simultaneously long vxx not as pointless as it sounds at first. Or maybe it does lol I'm not sure. I'd like to offset some of this INSANE decay. I bought some more VXX at 11.22 yesterday.
