Sum
VIX and XIV have been totally right on markets (again). VIX has closed below all pivots from 11/9 on. XIV nailed the stock index low on 11/3-4, holding its YP near exact and then jumping above all pivits from 11/8 on. XIV in particular has been on a tear since then, gaining over 100% from those lows and 49% this year. Hilarious - wasn't Wall Street consensus more volatility? Instead we are seeing historical extremes in low volatility! Yet both are showing a bit of caution last week, not confirming the recent stock index move. VIX is testing its FebP, and XIV faded back under a long term resistance level. VIX above its FebP and XIV rejection of 1HR1 will likely coincide with some shakeout in indexes.

GLD above all pivots is doing better than TLT, which cannot get going up though it has stopped dropping.

TLT
Weekly chart stopped dropping.
Daily chart shows two moves above monthly pivots only to be about sideways.
D50MA has leveled out but still under all pivots. Recent bounce attempt still under FebP.
TLT sum - weak. Above FebP for the second time and above 10MA, 20MA and 50MA would look a bit better. Still with Q1 halfway through, seems likely to remain under Q1P.

GLD
Second weekly bar clearly above all pivots.
Daily chart shows 1HP turning into support, bullish.
GLD - doing better than TLT, above all pivots.

GDX
Also above all pivots but seems to be struggling at D200MA, with a few times to clear and most recently rejection.

VIX
Red line on weekly chart shows lows of this decade, but no reason why it cannot drop lower into single digits.
VIX daily chart shows a big jump on 2/15, so not confirming the recent stock move. However, clearly staying below all pivots still bullish for stocks. VIX has closed under all pivots since 11/9.
VIX buy signals came come quickly with fast shoots up when risk suddenly shows its face to markets. Like stocks, the VIX buys (ie stock caution signals) work better with rising MAs. Currently 10MA flatish slightly up, 20MA flatish slightly down, 50MA down, 100MA down, 200MA down. See late October 2016 for rising 50MA and jump above a quarterly pivot. Until that happens, stock index bulls get benefit of doubt.

XIV
Weekly chart close under 1HR2 with wick looks more threatening. Note the low in 2016. Also, RSI 78 is highest in this ETF's history but VIX related RSIs don't work like stocks.
Daily chart shows 1 day above 1HR2 then 3 days under it. Level to watch this week.
Held YP on 11/3-4 a fantastic tell for markets. Closed above all pivots from 11/8 on. Above rising 20MA except 12/30 and all above rising 10MA since 1/3. Chart does not even convey the percentage gain here, up 111% from 11/3 close low to 2/14 high, and up 49% in 2017.

VI 1
Continuous VIX contract jumps at the rollover to the current month. Testing FebP but so far below all pivots.
