So, it needs another major bank to go under to create panic in the markets again Ok thanks for the reply

[waterloo01] 28/3/2023 19:18

That's because it measures and reflects volatility, and in VILX case forward VIX 1&2 months. S&P going down .5% a day is terrible for VIX, it needs 2%+ swings to get closer to 30

What i dont get is that the s and p 500 is the lowest since friday now and the vix hardly moves up??

[waterloo01] 28/3/2023 18:43

Looks like a good call. I sat on my hands today neither selling nor buying.

I've taken a last bit just under 28. That's me done. Will review the coming days.

Sold at 33 on Friday a.m. as I was travelling, only to watch it continue towards 40 - anyhow banked a mini-profit
Got back in at 29 this morning as VIX started to fall back towards 20 again. Will see how it goes.

Actually added a bit circa 29... leaving it to rip

[albert arthur] 27/3/2023 21:56

S&P500 back under the 200EMA should push this up, I'm going to hold out..

[mick1909] 27/3/2023 21:29

4000 looks like resistance and hopefully it will get rejected comfortably Yes recession is looming as earnings will fall come Q3 for sure

[waterloo01] 27/3/2023 17:59

Well even if the banking deposit freak out is over for now, it still leaves rates higher for longer and lots of other issues on the balance sheets, especially around some over exposed borrowers.

Earnings will also come down, so it's just a relief rally that things didn't fall over IMO

There will be another spike here before we know it....

Haven't traded VILX for a while and getting withdrawals so have snaffled a late few :)

[zcaprd7] 27/3/2023 10:18

Yes, except you can't sell when you want because of the time difference...

[mick1909] 27/3/2023 08:53

Any global news so far?

[albert arthur] 24/3/2023 16:18

Dice rolled, letting it rip.

[mick1909] 24/3/2023 15:10

Roll the dice black monday scenario

[albert arthur] 24/3/2023 14:29

Would expect a selloff towards the end of the day stateside, could be any news over the weekend, something doesn't feel right!! Problem for us in this, do we roll that dice into the weekend then track S&P, futures and VIX late into the day... Currently shaking those dice..

[mick1909] 24/3/2023 13:44

S and p 500

[mick1909] 24/3/2023 13:44

Once that support of 3800-3900 is broken the vix should explode
