FINAL THOUGHTS


/VX futures remain above 50 as uncertainty continues to cloud the market's future. Gamma has turned slightly negative which should add moderate volatility to price action. DIX increased again, which could be a sign of institutional players getting in on the action early or it could be QE rebalancing. While elevated volatility remains, continue to use lower leverage and a stop loss.
