Market top here because TVIX 1-year high volume today?

  1. Yes, but that might be 1 year later after spiking 10x. That can be brutal, or a blessing, depending on what side you are on.

    All those velocity things like TVIX, UVXY, VIXY, VXX, and what not, based on the VIX, are just derivative of market movements. I think it is probably wiser to pay attention to the movement of the underlyings, probably all SP500, but I really don't know. Great thread.

    P.S. my vote is pullback is all this is, going higher in the relatively near future.

    yep
    this is 2 leg pullback on the daily and will probably take off on Monday......if not it will dilly dally here and then take off

    the market appears to be building a base to go up from rather than a top.

    if and when it builds a top then it will be clear

    tops take time to build

    they are not a point or a level
