Vix is telling us for the time being, all things are well in the world. Implies higher highs for equities, and selloff in bonds.

, keep an eye for preemptive positioning by the bigboys before their sell orders trample everyone.

what it is capable of. Looking at the Vix can you an idea of what kind of levels to look for in terms of fear at the cusp of a correction.

I don't think so. A hard down day can just as easily be followed by a hard up day. Volatility is two-way street, up as well as down.

notice insurance was removed even though we made new low on index futures.... what its basically showing is that, the new index low attempts was engineered so that the insurance thats removed doesn't have excessive slippage..

then the next question is why is insurance being removed, when index futures are attempting to test lower levels, its basically preparation for the FED meeting..on Dec 11th..

the insurance levels..will be replaced after the FED meeting.

this double top structure implies a creation of new highs on the VIX.
