$VXN is not a measure of fear. The way $VXN changes in comparison to changes in the $NDX gives an indication of fear.

LIG,

You were long with considerable leverage Aug 25, looking for much lower levels of implied volatility:

Message 17917063

Now, $VIX and $VXN are much higher but you are here complaining that $VXN is at the "lower end" and questioning the reasoning for going long yesterday.

Last time you visited the thread was to make fun of some shorts Al made that went the wrong way for a while and then you went completely silent when that batch of shorting turned out to be profitable for Al.

Al loves to improve by looking back at mistakes and question his reasoning. But are you just here to heckle?

best...

Steve
