    Dr. Copper's brother -- perfect test of HS neckline.  Getting hammered today.  In the last big global sell-off -- 2008, copper and coal were harbingers back then.  Copper is awfully weak -- it appears this coal index is weaker.

    That is a lovely Kalinm and like corresponding VIX as well!  The SPX MAs are work of ART!

    someone more sophisticated with trading vehicles might be able to elaborate on shorting the coal index.  A decent proxy might by SMN which is a 2x short of the IYM (materials sector).  IYM getting crushed today (down 3.3% today).
