Hawaii Trading pointed out these fractals last Wednesday, and predicted a whippy ramp followed by a sharp drop. How true that became! Below the chart is the link to the original chart.
That lower orange line is like a multiyear line in the sand. It images better than Vix alone.
Funny the VOS appears to be an amazing indicator, and yet have never had a single comment on it. I guess people don't like Steroids?

Visited your site, like it.
ReplyDeleteSo are you playing SPY puts and calls primarily?
How do you annotate your screen captures? Looks like free hand.
yeah - i stick to the s&p 500 -- who needs a stock gapping 10 points on some random news flow
ReplyDeleteI do use trend lines to write my notes - i could use thinkorswim - it allows text notes - but it's not to hard to "write" using lines
Vix setup strikes me as what could be expected after a series of 1-2 waves
as soon as selling gets intense it's back up into a 2 wave
it's a full-time job to stay on top of one symbol (spy) i actually can't imagine trying to trade more than, say, one other symbol in addition.
ReplyDeleteI trade SPY etf -- puts and calls as well - I intend to start trading futures soon -- lots of move happen in the overnight session - it's aggravating to miss a move not having access to futures
Yeah it is something like 75% of the moves now happen at night....amazing.
