SPX - daily

VIX - daily

Summary

US equities opened a little weak, and slid lower across the day. There were multiple bounce attempts... but all failed, for what was an ugly end to the week.

With spiraling equities, volatility picked up, the VIX settling +24.4% to 28.21. Neither the daily,  weekly, or monthly candles, offer any sign of a floor.
