Yeah, Chris, I had caught that first bounce off of VIX 42 In late March, and sold it all into buying, all the while wondering if I had a real good bottom. Stomper had asked me, 'so Dale, I'm interested in knowing what you'll do now, you may have caught a real good bottom', I thought about it and I dumped it all, and continued shorting.
Then I missed the real low good bottom at 1619, mostly because of the 4/15 tax selling deadline. Everyone thought the selling would continue right on into 4/15, not! Wall Street decided it was time to intentionally squeeze the shorts, squeezed me out some too.
