I made almost exactly 1% which was a nice surprise. $VIX daily blew out the top of the BB's, so this seems like a safer trade to go long at the close, but I could not get the order in. That said, the weekly $VIX MACD has had a positive crossover and the $VIX is now above the mid BB.
If we get a nice quick down open, I will look at taking a long position. Today looked like the 25th of Sept which had the sell off into the close. The 28th opened with a rocket launch.
