The SKEW Index imho is a usefull indicator but the index does not provide you any timing on when to sell or to buy. I always look at divergence and this time the divergence is massive. So the pro's are buying protection (SKEW) while Joe 6 pack keeps buying stocks and is filled with FOMO (VIX)....Why make it difficult for yourself and do as the pro's are doing ...Buy some protection or reduce position size.....

The pros knew it was coming...good luck
