    maybe the bears are more nervous...

    i am guessing we will have a flat week with ups and downs while VIX works its way down. the crash will take place in a week.

    Stop wondering and get in the game! We use to have an old saying, "you have to be in it to win it".

    Notice the extreme push and pull, the volatility on down days, but on up days the market doesnt have that much push at all, it just trades higher and literally finds a comfortable zone and sits there all day.

    Congratulations, you just discovered a 100 year old pattern that volatility shrinks when markets rise and expands when markets sell off. LOL.

    You could have picked up an options text and learned all this a little further back.

  9. qqqq at 56.88. I want to take profits starting at 56.86 (2cents down), but I am concerned that it may stop at 56.88. Maybe I should just take it here and kick myself if it goes down further without rising for today. What do you guys think?
