Worth noting: our coveted HA_Momo is getting near its overbought territory.
Vol of the Vols Chart
VIX = 13.2 is now nearing -2 sigma (remember it’s the VIX’s vol pattern (its sigma channels) that matters, and not the level of VIX itself (this is per Dr. Robert Whaley, a great mentor and the inventor of original VIX, now called VXO). VIX usually peaks around a test of its +4 sigma).
As discussed here two weeks ago, VIX pulled back and it was much faster than most expected, including but not limited to, yours truly & @Capt_Tiko!!
5-day TRIN & TRINQ Charts
SELL SIGNALs on BOTH charts here........
Components of SPX above their respective 200day MA Chart

Last Friday, it closed at 127 after falling like lead in water to 123 in 5 sessions !!
All Quiet on the Mid-Western Front? Smart Money thinks so. This PDI thinks otherwise, but then again, what do we know!! In these cases, we shall yield to @Capt_Tiko and his great wisdom (He luvs #Rumi)
