Hi- Show-me,
So regarding the VIX, other than what Robo was saying about pulling "stops" (which I think I understand reasonably), the answer I was asking about seems to be, that right now, there really may not be that much "investor fear", as might be expected (without review w/in the historical context).
What is relavant related to current decisions on equities is, that swings above/below VIX ~25, -looking at swings to maybe 17 on low-side, or maybe 40 high-side, would be better guages, indicative of complacency, or fear, respectively.
Do I have the basics correct?

PS I'm hoping to hold out until March before more IFTs (have 3 for Feb) - but if opportunity/need arises, I will jump! I foresee individual lawsuits headed ETAC's way with that new Supreme Court ruling - just wondering how harm/loss might be proved??

Thanks! It is always a good call until you go in the negative. LOL
All the TA's are screaming break out of the symmetrical triangle, but which way? I'm not seeing the good news and only if the leaders of Iran, North Korea, and Venezuela stepping down and becoming a Democracy will I go long. I'm short and I like it for now. That or a major oil field find in Missouri, then I go long. LOL

No economic data or earnings to speak of for today. Monday is existing home sales and Tuesday is PPI and Consumer Confidence.:worried: The prior PPI was -0.1% so I'm guessing this PPI will be smoking hot to correct for the anomaly. One thing I keep telling myself is don't trust the gov. numbers.
Break out is coming! The chart can't take much more of this sideways action. The question is which way will she go?
Holding F fund.
Holding SDS.
Good luck and have a great weekend.

More Write-Downs Ahead?
The Citigroup research of Meredith Whitney, executive director of CIBC World Markets, triggered a staggering global selloff, and now she's warning that banks could face additional write-downs of up to $70B if bond insurers are downgraded.
http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=659529306
She predicts best case 15% more downside for financials worst case 50% more downside for financials.
