Where did all the volatility go?

Wow, after the last couple weeks in the YM, this week seems so dead....Its like watching paint dry...again...I blame Bernanke.

 

lol its aug end the slowest time in market as the boyz vacationing at the hamptons. vix needs to go sub 20 for some fireworks in sept

 

This is the YM I am used to

 

Time to lower the position size or go on vacation too.

there is PLENTY of volatility. you gotta be kidding me. for pete's sake, we just had a nice 40+ point move (both directions) off of the housing #in less that an hour. that is well over 80 pts in less than an hour (dow).

love this market

 

Noobs want 200 point moves so they can catch 5 of it

Then they give back the 5 ten times over when the vol dries up

 

too many people blew out
