MACD – 15D

The Volatility Index continues its downward move, in line with the signals I highlighted back on June 13. Both the weekly and daily closures were bearish, increasing the likelihood of further decline. While a few short-term signals could trigger a bounce, they have yet to be confirmed.

VIX is now attempting to form a 15-day MACD bearish cross. If this cross is recorded on July 17 and supported by a few reinforcing signals, I would expect a longer-term bearish stretch—similar to those seen in 2020–2021 and 2023–2024—which typically last around a year.

The index has reached the lower boundary of the flag formation we discussed earlier. The most probable scenario now is a period of consolidation before a potential breakdown.

Happy Trading!
