Volatility a little higher

With the main indexes seeing a little weakness, the VIX managed to hold minor gains, settling +2.1% @ 13.39. Near term outlooks remains a VIX likely to trade within a tight range of 13/11. It remains very unlikely for the VIX to break >20 until Jan/Feb' 2014.

Summary

Little to add, market volatility remains very low, and even the mid teens look out of range this side of thanksgiving.

Despite some significant interest in Feb/March VIX upside (see 12pm video post), there seems near zero point for anyone to be taking new VIX-long positions before Jan'2014.
