RE: [RT] For the folks with VIX interest

thks that is what I wanted to hear as it confirms my game plan. Just one
more question though, if  this is the case then I assume you would not
expect the vix to move much from its current area as we make the nearby low,
but then to precede lower (any idea how low) as we rally to our upper
target. Is this right and if so how can you use the vix to determine when
the final near term top is in or maybe we must just rely on other methods.
thks for your thoughts

That the low VIX readings are more critical now than they were earlier i.e.
I think it was unlikely that equities would rally directly from VIX in 20+-
range accompanied by severe breadth divergences in NYSE and a general
pattern of price weakness. I do think we are getting close to a low here
SP02M around 1132 and expect a rally. Still looking for 1250+ within a month
... then likely a major decline.
