Long XIV, short TVIX.
There will be no major bounce in VIX until XIV goes over 50.10

Looks like the short TVIX call is right first - TVIX down another 7% in premarket.

Thank goodness that's the signal I chose to follow by going long XIV at $41.50 on December 2.

Xiv will clear 50.10, then Spy will fall to 182. This is the range.

Just got the signal to close out the current TVIX short position at the open tomorrow. It is currently up 13.77% (I missed this trade waiting for TVIX to hit $12.75, which it didn't do - my bad).

Is this a different SS signal you are using, Kevin? Or is it the SF ETF short filter or something else?

It is a set of SS filters specifically designed to short trade TVIX - I have not posted the filters but will share the signals when it makes sense to do so. I usually post these signals and all of my 3x ETF SHORT filters in my other read-only thread.

Gonna close my Xiv long and Tvix short for a very nice 6% at 10.13.

Learning you should NEVER EVER be long Vix in contango, unless you come up with some super filter
that catches that once a year spike. Better to sit out the market and only short it when signals say short.

I have no play, the only thing I think I know is that Xiv will clear 50.10 before tanking. Getting frothy here so may sit out a couple weeks and smell the roses.
