Warp, I may or may not use the VIX in the same way as other folks. What I do is look at the absolute number and trend on a longer time frame than the daily period link I've been posting. Here's the link, hit weekly to correct the time period:

finance.lycos.com

You can see that it nailed the time to buy January 2000, sell in March 2000, buy in August 2000, dump in late December, nailed the strong buy in early January 2001, likewise the need to sell end of January 2001, and so on.

I view it as an intermediate term tool that has correctly called all the major turns in the last year. Right now it is screaming sell.
