Lou you are right. On Nov 16, 1999 the VIX closed at 19.63 and is one of perhaps many exceptions to the rule of thumb that a VIX reading below 20 is a sell signal. So I guess I need to understand if the VIX is totally useless as sell signal or if there is something else occurring on the "exception" days that explain the "exception" when the market rises after a low VIX. I wonder if a review of total open interest in puts and calls when the under 20 VIX values occur might help find the reason for the "exception". Something to add to my to do list.
