We're approaching a window of time to stay on your toes. (Does not mean sell everything - we're in a stock pickers market and a lot of stocks will continue doing well.)
If you look back to the inception of the VIX (early 1990s) you'll see the wedge is a pretty good classical charting pattern to apply and have some sense of potential VIX rallies.
Not an easy instrument to play or time, but a good tool for your trading toolbox. Keep an eye if there's a daily or weekly close over 22. That would likely mean risk-off for the S&P and broader markets
