# VIX Stretches This strategy was taken from chapter 12 of [*Short Term Trading Strategies That Work*](https://moshferatu.dev/moshferatu/short-term-trading-strategies-that-work) (2008) by Larry Connors. ## Rules 1. The asset (e.g., SPY) is above its 200-day moving average. 2. If VIX is stretched 5% or more above its 10-day moving average for 3 or more days, enter a long trade. 3. Exit the trade when the 2-period RSI closes at or above 65. ---
