Where's the VIX ? I usually get the VIX with the Options summary
from the CBOE but last night they did not have the daily VIX, saif it
was because of 'System' problems, blame the system!
I got the VIX intraday until about 10:00 am EST, then it stopped. There
was an RSI 5-day reading below 30%. I'll be looking at the
OOPS & STOOPS today, you never know.
