Bold Prediction and Gut Feeling


I got a strong gut feeling we'll see a "crash" in the VIX come within the next 2 weeks. I can feel it coming. This is just a 'stupid prediction' just like many you see on the internet BUT my only advise is bears have your stops ready and bulls be ready for a monster short squeeze! When markets behave like this you can never be too ready and you need to always stay sharp and stay vigilant and know that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, remember those 3 simple words the minute the opening bell rings.

BIG move is coming and soon in my humblest of opinions.

Be smart.

Blessings to all!

    anon. believe me, there much much deeper lines of thinking behind this call then a simple XLF breakout. a serious wake up call and today i have am finally starting to see bear frustration and the start of what could be a vicious combo of mini bear capitulation combined with the possibility of "sideline" feeling like the they are 'missing the boat'. Jobs are at stakes, reputations etc. the last time i made a bold and out of the blue prediction like this one, we were seeing the EXACT mirror opposite thing happening in March 2008, too many bulls buying dips and i kept shorting and saying that the indexes will crash. i even made a friendly bet with another blogger that the indexes would crash.. i was off by a couple of days but the end result did materialize as reality set it. This is a phenomena, i have seen it MANY MANY times before but on much smaller scale. This time history is rhyming but the scale is amplified. You are seeing a shorting phenomena mirror opposite of the buying phenomena i was seeing in march 2008. It all comes down to denial and the eventual recognition of the truth. i am getting too philosophical here but i hope my point is being made. it might come within 2 weeks or it might after, i don;t know when BUT it is coming. my two cents.

    i humbly believe that once we see a lot of "shorting" mentality almost completely evaporate and switch to complete desperate and outright bullishness then it would be time to pull the rug from under the majority yet again. it's a tricky game of cat and mouse we play in. We will ALL be wrong and there's nothing with being wrong...but what's what stops and trading breaks are for.

    Stewie, you will be right. Every time the market was in a trading range Bears came out and said the market was going to tank. Remenber the so "popular" rising wedge in April at 850?? Well this is gonna work out the same. There's no easy money.

    There will be serious damage to Bears who still don't believe in the power od this rally. It may be a countertend rally, may be not. But who cares?? I mean, we are seeing some stocks triplicating it's value in just a matter of months. This is no joke.
    We need a surprise, a big push where everyone gets convinced this market is definitely Bullish and where there are no Bears left. Only when that happens we will see a serious crash in this market, not before.
    My two cents.

    GL GT.

    i agree, so many no believers out there that this rally is for real. def a cyclical bull in secular bear and we know how secular bears end. But have to trade the tape at the end of the day...

    hi delta. to be honest, regardless whether this prediction is accurate or not, the bottomline is this: I will continue to trade it one day at a time. My longest holding period is 2 days and my average stop loss is less than 5% away.
    I trade what i see and i see a whole of doubters with charts that are pointing north. If you dare to say you are "bullish" you will be shunned and booed by the vast majority which are the bears currently. Recall what happened in 2007 and early 2008 when this bear had just started: recall: bears were ridiculed while bulls kept buying and averaging down into steep losses, whilst bears were cleaning house! What are you seeing now?? exact opposite imho. who knows how/when/where it ends?? i don't know but i will not fight it. it is what it is, a strong rally that might just get stronger.

    I think GM doesn't go bankrupt on Monday and we rally hard and fast to S&P over 1,000
