I can tell you this: TLT, USD and VIX look bearish.

I am sure there are much smarter guys out there when it comes to explaining the VIX. When VIX drifts lower it means that people are less willing to insure their portfolios and are more aggressive in their buying activity. When VIX sky rockets, it means that there's a big amount of fear factor in the markets as trader scramble to insure their portfolios. having said all that VIX had a very poor close today from a charting standpoint which means more upside to come short term.Stewiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18426469322190080207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6842036031859472688.post-87904406725085159392009-05-04T13:27:00.000-07:002009-05-04T13:27:00.000-07:00Stewie, Have a few charts for sharing.

I am looking for VIX $32, TLT $95, and USD $83.4 to go short.<br /><br />These probably correlate to SPX 930s, or even double top 943.<br /><br />Would appreciate any comments you have.
