I watch VXX/XIV which also helps to give signals and to help gauge if support/resistance levels are holding or breaking.

Above 48 on the VXX was resistance and, sure enough, VXX went there twice before taking a breather. The second failed attempt to bust above coincided with the SPY bounce up.

EDIT - each time it got above 48, it made a lower high, another solid indicator that it may not be ready to go any higher! Taking a position in XIV at that point (or shorting VXX) is a good risk/reward setup. If it goes against you, you'll know quickly and time to dump the position for a small loss.
