SPX - daily

VIX - daily

Summary

US equities opened moderately lower, with the SPX taking out the recent low of 4216, and printing 4189. From there... a bounce, if choppy, that extended into the early afternoon to 4255, and cooling back to settle at 4217.

Volatility was mixed, the VIX printing a (cash market) high of 22.47, if cooling back to 19.48, and settling -6.2% to 20.37

Tuesday appears prone to starting positive, but with today's new cycle low, this market is to be seen as short & mid term BROKEN. SPX 4K doesn't look overly difficult by Halloween.
