hi zeev, major lurker here but for augie's benefit also a lifetime member. just to busy trading to make any daily contributions to this thread. frankly, i don't know how you do it or for that matter why, given the periodic flack your subjected to, but i'm sure glad you do. not sure if you've reviewed these or not but in addition to the vix, the vix:spx ratio is showing levels not seen since the turns on 8/5, 7/24 and 9/21 of last year. additionally, the $namo seems to be flashing "buy" and there are bullish divergences showing up on the $nasi and bpcompq charts. seems to me a pop is imminent. once again, thx. for sharing your wealth of knowledge!
