3pm update - VIX melting lower

Despite the indexes holding flat since the early morning, the VIX has continued a slow, but consistent decline, and is now -3.4%. Sp'1660 is clearly an important level, and it almost looks like we're right back to the recent algo-bot melt.

Summary

Hmm, its turned out to be something of a dull day.

I will hold short overnight, but considering there is a 5-6bn of QE tomorrow - along with end-month price shuffling, I'm no longer looking forward to whats ahead.

Very frustrating..and now we're sp'1671s

3.29pm..well, we're rolling over on the hourly chart.

Considering how dull the day was, ANY close <1660 should be a...relief.
