With the main indexes flipping back to fractionally green, the VIX has broken a new low for 2013..in the 11s. This was indeed expected, and its very likely the rest of this week will remain in the 12-11 range. Whether the sp' will make a play to break the Oct' 2007 high of 1576..we'll soon see.

Summary
As I thought, today..and probably this week will just be another frustrating week for the bears.
There seems absolutely no point in attempting an index re-short - or long VIX, until next week.
I recognise, a fair few chartists out there are suggesting the same kinda thing.

Regardless of the main indexes, I am currently long, via SLV and USO, from earlier this morning.
