from Les H:

VIX Rate of Change More Important Than Its Level
...
The stock market selloff during May and June 2011 unfolded without any big spikes upward in the VIX, which was confusing for a lot of people. If the market was in a downtrend (they wondered), why was the VIX staying so low? We now have the answer, with the sudden jump upward in the 7ROC indicator to a high of 25.8% on June 16. Fear reaches a climax at the end of a decline, not in the middle of one.
