Indeed Ginger it would. ratio now at 65.9, which is above that 65 resistance. That chart showed we had a triple around 65 before falling down 38%

The S&P/VIX ratio is now above 65 again. The bulls say we'll have S&P above 1200 and bears say 1120. We'll soon find out. For 1200 to happen the ratio will probably break to 75-85 region - too high based on the charts...

Ashraf, yes, I've been keeping a very close eye on the ratio today - it was in the range: 61-64.

The market continues to defy logic and is overbought (even Cramer on CNBC, a perpetual bull, says so!) but it just doesn't want to go lower - tomorrow could be interesting but I doubt any change will happen in the tone of the FOMC. Nonetheless there may well be some profit taking tomorrow and news from China on rates could start the ball rolling for a much needed pullback.

Ginger, yes S&P/VIX ratio went back up to 65 but as you saw from the 1st chart and today's, the January high consisted of 3 short upticks before it fell by 35%. so we could well see reccurring testing of 65 before the pullback. Could it be on FOMC Tuesday ?

Ashraf, the S&P/Vix ratio closed today at 65.2, with the S&P closing at 1149.99 (this number feels to me as if it is manipulated some how!!), anyway although the market feels it's about to go lower it just hovers around 1150 with a bias towards going higher (Dow went higher today). What is your hunch for whether S&P goes higher next week? It feels like a double top to me but this market always seems to surprise.

Also, do you still fell that euro/dollar will fall to 1.32 by end of March or is it going to rally to over 1.40?

Look forward to your views.
