Kevin what are your thoughts on the cotango levels for TVIX right now? The F4-F7 cotango levels are very high considering the growing backwardation for the F1-F2 futures.

Contango for the ^VIX is at -3.84% as of 2:45 PM today (in backwardation). F7/F4 contango (for ^VXV) is at +9.44%.
TVIX should do well under these conditions, but backwardation is usually quite short-lived. I just took a short position in TVIX anticipating a reversion to the mean, but it is a small position that I can add to in case this period of backwardation is more prolonged.
For the F7/F4 contango you would probably short VXZ.

If GDX breaks above 24 Chikou Span will be clear of resistance, we could see a runner.

Seems to me the wider the spread between the two cotango levels the more likely a snapback will happen with the F1/F2 cotango. Not sure there is any fact behind that theory or not. Just an observation I had.

Karen, yes, I did. sorry...8:25 or so. Just got back in BWEN at 7.90. It has this nice trading range, very strong company, so LT investors keep propping it back up.
