You fellas are confusing me. Why are CPC and VIX being used in the same correlation chart? Aren't they both supposed to determine market tops or bottoms?

When using a comparison chart, I thought we should use symbols that are inverse of each other. That way you'd know which entity was in control of the market.

For the sake of simplicity, an example of what I'm talking about would be a comparison that would show GROWTH:VALUE, LARGE CAP:SMALL CAP, HOT:COLD, SALT:PEPPER, etc. That way the chart would clearly show which entity was the dominate performer and which one wasn't.

I thought you should use symbols that are inverse of each other.

Maybe it's that the VIX is an inverse symbol. I don't know. Maybe I could figure it out if I put the chart up in front of a mirror.

I wish someone would explain why we're comparing the CPC to the VIX.
