John, I think that VXN should always be some 50 to 100% greater than VIX, the former is premiums on NDX the later on SP100, much less volatile than the NDX individual stocks.

The folks at CONTRARY INVESTOR place much more emphasis on VIX than most folks on this thread. True strong rallies can occur with low VIX. But A low VIX greatly reduces the odds of a strong rally IMHO and the high level of complacency signalled by such readings often leads to sharp declines. To me low VIX and VXN signal unfavorable risk/reward relationships in the markets. Nothing more nor less than that.
