VIX traded near Zone 3, 18-23 VIX, for the first time since November. In the previous 10 CPI numbers, the prevailing move held but this one stopped cold once VIX hit 18 this afternoon. [fstp] SPY should see a downward continuation tomorrow since the rate drop talk should be dead in the short term. On the opposite side, the VIX collapse from top makes me think we will take 500 SPY again this week. If the rate drop rhetoric is dead, 480 SPY should be in the cards this week. - AG  [logo, pit profits] - Option Pit Mentoring - closed SPY FEB16/FEO09 499 CC 1.35 Feb16 490 p 2.10 for a 7% gain Want to find YOUR winning fit?
