Yeah I am short M against JCP ..... and I know you are a momentum guy ..... east meets west here .... London Ont ..... we will see what happens ....
My initial play was to buy JCP on the dip and I looked for a comparable pair to match it up against, and M looked the most overbought at the time.

So far the vix top and the s&p bottom have coincided well. What are the odds that they would be exactly on the 2nd of each month for the last 3 mo. Institutional buying or gov manipulation or both? Just trying to learn.

If anything there is normally a slight bias to the upside at the end of the month and a slight bias to the downside the first few days of the money .....

M4M are you talking about using the wilders RSI normally set at 14 period and now set to 2? Is this on a daily, hourly chart for daytrading, swing, or position trades. Does it only apply to the VIX. Could you elaborate a little more? Thanks

More like-minded thinking in the Blogosphere ...
VIX Goes from Overbought to Oversold in Just 5 Days
This analysis uses the 10 day MA and looks for movement greater than 10% in either direction. Similar to BarTune1's original premise that got me looking more closely at the VIX as a trading system.
Enjoy!
Kevin

I'm in early again Kevin - hoping the market reverses soon. At least my JCP:M pair moved the right direction today.

I am holding off until at least tomorrow's close - with no economic news slated through Wednesday, there is little to derail these markets from further advancement.
Also, looking at the VIX relative to the lower BB(10,2) there is at least one more day's worth of room to go lower before any rebound (IMHO).
