TVIX - Meltdown Underway

TVIX made a parabolic rise, and started to meltdown yesterday.

The 50 weekly moving average is at $146, and should provide support next week.  TVIX should hold over that in the $250 level. 

60min Chart

















SVXY finally broke out of a relentless downtrend.

  1. SC: a 32.5 of SVXY for the end of march is in line with a 500 point up of s&p500? or we can see weaker impulse? is there contradiction between the 2 things?

    many thanks..

    1. SVXY is relatively conservative in the way it is constructed.

    2. Low was 2,280 SPX. Let's assume 2,700 to 2,750 next high.

      I estimated 500 points. By this calculation if the high is 2,700 to 2,750 as shown on the SPX chart that gives 420 to 470 points which is right in the ballpark.

  2. SPX 200 dma 2,641. Should at least hit that next week possibly overthrow.

    2. Once SPX hits the upside target, what would be your downside target? Do you expect a lower low? Thx

      Delete
    3. The SPX chart has confirmed and so I'm expecting it to play out with the next high 2,700 to 2,750 SPX next week and a low 2,450 the week of May 4th.

    4. SC, is there a typo in your post? Those numbers and dates don't look right per your previous posts.

      Thanks

  5. The 50 weekly for TVIX is $146. Even an undercut of that is possible at $110.

  10. unless the VIX goes low again before another huge and fast leg down, I missed the good trade when I sold UVXY options for .76 then watched them go to 113.0...

    1. It was a big move for certain. If we add up the next couple moves can total the same size as this one.

      Delete
    2. Thx SC, I am looking forward to trading the moves, but potential is limited when the VIX is high.

      Delete
  11. Is this a bottom for a while, or just the first leg of a huge down?

    1. TVIX chart played out. SVXY hit resistance and dropped.

      Unemployment is coming. Also they are delaying voting on stimulus bill.

      Delete
  21. SPXU 50 weekly $25.16. Support.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Aren't you looking for 50 wma on TVIX ultimately?

    ReplyDelete
  23. VIX does not seem to agree with this rally in the least

    ReplyDelete
  24. This is a strong daily chart TVIX, UVXY, and VXX.

    VXX can see a fresh high soon.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Sc if that's the case how do you expect to see 2700 on Spx then?

    1. Volatility is starting to build a base, slowly rising, but SPX still has upside as well.

  26. Record Unemployment but it's not a shock to the market because everyone knew about it last week.

  28. Morgan Stanley chief investment officer
    Hands me a laugh he says now is the time to buy stocks Why didn't he tell us to buy 4000 points lower

  29. you want to cancel that call on gold and silver, Gold parabolic move is coming....

    ReplyDelete

    1. Silver deep bear market coming on 10 years.

      With weak Silver, Gold is hampered. Sure Gold has performed better for last few years. No question it is trying to test its 2011 high, and it will, but it's still weak over the last 10 years.

      Deflation in commodities.

    2. This will surprise many. In time of greatest crisis, the US dollar is the most liquid, best safe haven.

      Delete
    3. US dollar index rising since 2011 when Gold peaked. The index is heading for the 2001 peak.

      Delete
    4. you have been wrong on gold and silver all year, its now about to go parabolic, no one beleves in the dollar and the paper short is about to implode at comex......spot prices are much higher.....you need to learn about gold before talking about it....

      Delete
  30. Stay in the USD. Avoid Canadian or Australian dollars especially, those commodities producers and stock markets are the worst, falling precipitously!

    ReplyDelete
  31. SC - silver is leading gold...it’s already below the 2016 lows...means gold might reverse soon and join it with a big plunge...

    ReplyDelete

    1. That is what is most interesting is that there is this imbalance between Gold and Silver.

      Delete
    2. TIPS plunged too...if next downdraft is because of liquidity crisis then gold will be under 1000 in next few months as USD soars.
