Generally small investors use it so the COT data on it is not as useful. However, recently the readings seem to be about the same. One other comment, the chart posted requires a short term change in the Vix to trigger any buys, meaning it has to close below its midpoint and the opening on the same day. That has not happened yet, so no short term longs for me until then. No telling how far this could go, it is purely news driven and at this point a panic selloff. I am embarassed not to have exited prior to this, but I am far from perfect. Also, my trade is based on longer term fundamentals which have not changed yet.Chris Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08943304393379552866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27784316.post-32863447851795396452007-08-16T06:19:00.000-07:002007-08-16T06:19:00.000-07:00Hey Chris,Another good update, thanks.

The one I can get free on the internet has a lot of categories for things like E-mini S&P, E-mini NASDAQ 100, etc. What does the E-mini mean? Here are the charts I look at: http://www.timingcharts.com/index.php<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/><BR/>JonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05498961448019036788noreply@blogger.com
