VIX - simple and reliable

When VIX is above 20, market is getting volatile. When it is above 40, potential correction may occur. Since 2008, such events only occur 5 times including the current one.

Be patient, watch it trending down towards 20, and act on it.

Personally, I would buy index ETF when the VIX is trending toward 20. As long as VIX is above 40, I stay on the sideline.

Tried shorting UVXY and VIXY tonight but no such luck....I believe any day now the VIX is due for at least a 1/3 pullback. I'm bearish but damn that vix is nasty high, a drop below 50 this week is imminent!!!
