I don't care about VIX actual value. I only care if SPX makes a higher high whether VIX makes a lower low, if not, then something wrong. So right now too early to say.

For Europe, this is what was driving the markets: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/spain-inc ... 51448.html. If Spain asks for help, then this triggers Euro QE.

shorts too scared to do anything...riding the bull train since open. Hold on tight though as once again we are bumping the bollinger. Maybe a pop above on Monday will signal a top. Overall, awfully volatile and do not plan to hold positions overnight as has been the case for the last several weeks.

Broken red trend line. Still in a large Bear channel(at top); There is more down potential than up (now).

Lot of stops where the market is heading. Have a feeling that the market is front running the 'all but certain easing in September'.
