This looks like a massive shakeout move before a fast move up. Friday's downturn could look like chicken feed. I will know if 2200 holds, but the VXN is at a level where one can expect a major bounce.
Jan 4 - We have transitioned into a bear market. Completely different rules apply. May 23 - IMO, any price at/above this close makes a great Nasdaq/SP500 short.
