FX.co ★ Technical analysis of the VIX Index for October 3, 2022

The VIX index displays a clear S/H/S bottom calling for a strong rally. Once the VIX Index closes above 37, this close of above 37 will take the VIX right through the Fear zone and up into the Extreme Fear zone indicating a panic situation for the S&P 500.

Looking at the S&P 500 (the red line), we see a clear inverse Cup-With-Handle pattern that suggests a decline towards 2,235 in the weeks/months to come.
