if bears want to fight back, it's this week especially after 04/27 FOMC announcement. All I can say now are bears have better chances to fight back than the next week.

Thanks for any input.
don't trade VXX, it's nothing to do with VIX. If you can short VXX, maybe that's a good idea, just hold it and let it drop to zero.
I agree with Cobra, only trade VXX is you understand everything about the VIX, do you know what contango is?. Otherwise don't hold it for long unless you're shorting it, like Cobra says.
This spike in the VIX with VXX trading down could be a buy setup. VXX looks to be ending it's down cycle around now but any attempt to trade this is highly speculative and short-term only.
I do wonder what this sort of a set up, VIX spike and VXX w/ RSI(2) < 10 has done in the past?
I use the VWAP for intraday trades. It serves as confirmation – as long as SPY is trading above the VWAP, I usually give the rally the benefit of the doubt. If it crosses the VWAP to the downside, I will short with a stop at the VWAP (it’s amazing used as support/resistance).
Use it on an intraday 1 minute time frame. It is a powerful compliment to traditional chart reading.[/quote]

hmm, this kind of close could mean more weakness tomorrow morning assume there's no miracle in the last 8 minutes. I see 2 legged down here, this is the 2nd leg down and that's why I think we may see more weakness tomorrow morning.

No - I learned this technique from Craig when he used to moderate the Stocktock.com board. Could you share your thoughts?
