A breakout above 30 will indicate a MELT of SPX ? This has been my sense or it too, and yet: "The VIX is quoted in terms of percentage points and translates, roughly, to the expected movement in the S&P 500 index over the next 30-day period, on an annualized basis. For example, if the VIX is at 15, this represents an expected annual change of 15%; thus one can infer that the index option markets expect the S&P 500 to move up or down over the next 30-day period."
