(I am having trouble getting the best out of this web page. I try changing the zoom level, but then the page needs to be refreshed sometimes, to put it back in line where it's supposed to be. Also, the F11 key gives more room at the top and bottom.).*

BOUGHT XIV at $30.80, taking small loss.*

The order was filled at 01:27:20 pm.*

The VIX to VXV ratio was at about 0.98 or 0.99, and I don't want to bet on it going much higher. The VXV to VIX ratio was about 1.016. The VIX to VXV number is easier to interpret, but the VXV to VIX chart is easier to interpret.*

I have set a sell limit for $33.*
