2pm update - VIX is holding up well

Whilst equity indexes are holding moderate gains, sp +9pts @ 2089, the VIX is trading flat in the low 15s. There remains high probability of another wave lower... and the excuse for tomorrow could be 'good news is bad news'. Metals remain weak, Gold -$8. Oil continues to slide, -2.6%.

*I am looking to the next trade... China-short is a valid short term trade...

FXI' 15min

For now... I'm content to watch.. but there is viable downside to the 47s. To be considered this hour.

As ever.. typical turn time is 2.30pm... so I'll be especially watching the smaller 5/15min cycles.
