$VIX

    This has become the energizer bunny market, it just keeps on going.

    One crack that I saw yesterday was the Vix, it broke below the bollinger band and then closed back inside the band and drew a hammer like candle.

    Also yesterday via my work I bought oil and energy related stocks, here are some charts. Also, notice that on the DBC = CRB chart that the price has broken above a long term trend line.

    Thanks Park, Look at XLE and DIG, both are trying to breakout. both are also set to pull back at the open this am, I think it's a time to add to these positions. Sometimes as oil gets cheaper the refiners margins and profits go up and that seeems to be what is happening now. Also, notice that the Bollinger bands are pinching in and that yesterday the price closed above the upper swing high but outside the BBband, so a pull back is not unexpected. But I think this is a great area to get in now, and if Iran does something stupid in the gulf then this sector will take off and this etf will help offset the price of filling up the suv.
