For all the bears (and I've been one too often) shorting into strength is the inverse of trying to catch a falling knife. Could be a dangerous game. I'd like to see a short term topping pattern (measured in a couple hours) before initiated a short term short with tight stops and minimal capital exposure. Right now I'm leaning more towards going long on the next pull back. Short term TICK and TRIN are still quite bullish (although I know TICK can be a contrary indicator). Weekly Stochastic is in the process of making a bull cross from oversold area, even though Monthly is starting to turn down.
RSI to hit 100

Out of some longs. Also, bought some VIX Aug 25 calls @ 1.20
BBC: well, yes, expensive… Last time I bought them (around 17) they were 0.85 but the “mood” has changed and VIX is VIX: manipulated and a can of hopes and fears!!bbc wrote:cougar wrote:VIX lingers at this level .

I knew, the thing that is tricky for VIX options is, you could not expect IV of VIX options to drop as expiration approaching.cougar wrote:BBC: well, yes, expensive… Last time I bought them (around 17) they were 0.85 but the “mood” has changed and VIX is VIX: manipulated and a can of hopes and fears!!bbc wrote:cougar wrote:VIX lingers at this level .
