The Mini-NDX has much higher call open interest.

Allan,

>>>>> Equity put/call for the week was .45 -- not an extreme at all, and much higher than at the July 17th top <<<<<

Im not sure about that, although I too sleepy to check right now. I recall the lows to be around .40 so its not that far off if I am correct.

The VIX could get to around 17, but on a relative basis for this year, it is at the years lows, maybe even 52 week lows.
On a weekly chart sure does look like a BIG OLE BEARISH WEDGE to me.

Im not saying crash, since the elections are right around the corner. Maybe just a 5-10% pullback depending on the index. Although Sept is statistically a weak period, I dont think the powers that be would permit too large of a selloff right before the elections.

Just waiting for the early SEPT/late AUT TOP per my mid-term analysis.
