    His "prediction" was buy the Vix on the close Friday and sell it on the open. Whether we use Sunday night's open or Monday morning, the VX futures opened flat. When he resorts to making a real time call he is dead wrong. Also, he has no understanding of how the VIX works as he foolishly demonstrated on a vix related thread. He still believes one can trade the "cash vix". LOL. He doesn't understand the futures.

    Indeed. I wish I could pull up the VX futures on my charting software, but I'd have to pay $40 per month extra for that feed. I don't think I would ever trade a $50/tick instrument at this point in my career. Sounds like fun!

  9. do we know what the hell happened??! Was a very unexpected, sharp drop. Pretty much recovered now, but I wondered if maybe someone had opened fire on the White House or something

  10. Indexes up and almost erase yesterdays loss, VIX rose 11%. Today its down 5%. Rigged to perfection, keeping that VIX off the lows. Thats such an easy trade, go long VIX because they work overtime keeping that sucker up.
