interesting that you mentioned a butterfly pattern. i was also thinking about it the other day. looks yet to be completed, though. the 127.2% retracement of 1.0461 to 1.1713 is at 1.0120. there is a previous structure support at 1.0112. that's a level i am looking at longer term. might not get there in months.

eu monthly

not a lot of follow through for eu since breaking below that multi year range last month. might want to test the middle of that range again.

you might have noticed it earlier also as no 127.2% or 161.8% works in all this ..... its all about demand and supply @ a particular level near the 127.2% or 161.8% .... i hope it helps .... and do correct me if i am wrong .... in your view

you are absolutely right. fibs are just guides. ultimately they all go back to support and resistance levels.

Hey man, hope you had a good Christmas break and all is well. I think we're in for some better trading times in the coming months & years. Shit will happen.

Speaking of levels, one I watch is that VIX = 10....chart is 20 years of monthly sausages, VIX only been below 10 maybe a few times. Wtf? That is the f'n mother of all levels, right there. Anyway, when the VIX is stumbling along just above the 10 handle, I need throw some money at it. VIX, VXX, UVXY, /VX, whatever....it'll scud along down there for months but sooner or later shit will happen and it will pop to 25 or 30 maybe even higher.

This is really the only trade I know how to do. Gonna put it on my tombstone: "He was long VIX".....poor sucker...

Hey man, hope you had a good Xmas yourself. These equity markets are designed to go up it seems, and why wouldn't they be. I sure hope your right about some vol picking it, cause man its been like squeezing water from a stone. Hate to think what some of those poor spu traders have been going through. Anyway, I like your reasoning, it seems cheap. But how is the market structured, I mean if you go out a ways, how much more expensive is that VIX?

well there are cheap ways to play long vol, but if you face facts & realize you will prolly be losing everything you bet, then none are cheap enough.

Seriously though, the surest thing in the world is shorting the VIX spikes, but that ain't so easy to do, either. I had good setups on the 2 big elections in 2016 - those were awesome because you knew the date and you knew it many months in advance, giving you time to build a hideous contraption of a trade if you wanted to.

I think the eurozone developments will be the big chance for vol pops in 2017, but it's not so easy to call. I think we will see the best of the US stocks in Q1/Q2, maybe around the French elections bastards will want to be gone to cash.....
