Yes, will hold- the structure terms and skew are pointing to limited downside, so worth the risk, even if SPX goes up like today.

We had a 10+ SPX handle day, and TVIX is up 4.6%.

SPX up, TVIX up. SPX down, TVIX up.

Can't say no to that until it stops working.
true....i just dont like the price action in bonds...for the full TVIX position...so im cutting my risk by half.

No bets here, glad I got stopped out on the open. Everyone piles in long, no thanks.

Enjoy your holidays.

Thanks for the insights everyone

Key part in trading is managing position size, so that is key. I'm also not in "full" mode with TVIX. Waiting for further confirmation before going there.

Merry Xmas peeps!

Looks like someone is taking a profit on bonds and buying financials - year end portpolio reallocation/window dressing? Strengh in financias for the last two days has been amazing as well as money flow...

I have a cycle turn date 23rd Dec, but could have a spillover high on 27th Dec. In all, my guess is that a high is near and we will generally be weak moving towards 1st week of Jan.

Doesn't look toppy to me, looks like at the tip of a symmetric triangle. Like gold was 2 weeks ago.
