Today, S&P futures dropped from a high of 2961 to as low as 2915 with a decline of 46 points. While the daily trend is still up, S&P has to get past hourly trend resistance of <SP_HT1> to uptrend and potentially re-test the highs. VIX jumped 12.8% closing at 14.80. A weekly close above <VIX_WT1> would be bullish for VIX in the interim.
