Wow, the most active is VIX Jan18 C @ 37.5??? That's a full 10 point higher than it is now. Looks like the scramble might be slowly starting then...cougar wrote:VIX C/P vol. today >10 !!!BullTart wrote:Looks like fear is beginning to creep back in... fear that Santa might pull a "no-show" due to massive overhang.
The VIX Cracken is slowly waking up when it should be in hibernation at this time of the year. VIX usually is dead in December.
This is very dangerous, as nothing likes to be woken from deep sleep.
It's like waking up a bear during hibernation. It will be very, very angry.
If fear comes back at what is usually a very "safe" part of the year, many traders will be caught off-guard and there will be a mad scramble to buy protection.
And that is when the VIX Cracken will emerge from its cave and devour all the poor, complacent souls.
Let's hope that doesn't happen as it will be a true bloodbath.
Most active today: VIX Jan18 C 37.5 !!!

i was just going to comment that this sell-off since about 2pm yesterday has been really steady and uniform. this LOOKS like mutual fund repositioning...but what the hell do i know.Cobra wrote:nothing to say, it's clearly steady down, before this trend line broken and the low get revisited, don't long.

I think I was front running. I was expecting a bounce back to the bottom of the triangle. I should have stayed with the trend down. Live and learn.Petsamo wrote:It was the responsible thing to do. We're oversold.michelangelo wrote:Damn, shouldn't have covered my TZA from yesterday.
Cougar thanks for gold, she’s acting like the “Madwoman of Chaillot” perhaps following the inverted dollar down (while TIPS are still holding bull).cougar wrote:The GLD breakdown will be confirmed of it closes the week under MAE(34)
We little people can't front run. The big boys control this market, and they don't listen to us little people.michelangelo wrote:I think I was front running.
