Hey, Ross here:

The question on every trader’s minds – what’s the most likely path forward for the market?

Let’s take a look.

**Chart of the Day**

This chart shows how the Volatility Index (VIX) has historically reacted after large spikes – like what we saw Wednesday.

As the data shows, after such large spikes, the VIX has almost always calmed down in the days after.

And a low VIX generally bodes well for markets – we saw a similar return to normal in the days after the August 5 selloff.

Again, there are no guarantees.

But again – the odds appear to be on our side.

**Insight of the Day**

**Position yourself for a healthy correction – not a major crash**.

This is exactly what I said right after the August selloff.

Of course, I did not expect the recovery in the markets to be so swift.

But the above advice still turned out to be good…

And I believe it’ll hold true this time around as well.

The fact is, the fundamentals of the stock market – corporate earnings – are still holding strong…

And America is still the economic powerhouse of the world.

So, position yourself for a healthy correction _(which is what the odds say)_ – not a major crash.

And if you want to juice your odds even further…

Then make sure you attend my LIVE insider masterclass **[later this morning at 11 a.m. Eastern…](https://secure.tradersagency.com/insider/?tambid=27489)**

Where I’ll reveal how to follow the trades of the top corporate insiders blatantly trading in their own company stock.

There’s a reason this strategy has never had a losing year – even in the 2022 bear market…

And why it’s managed to build up a compounded return of over 1,500% since inception.

The correction is a perfect opportunity to position yourself alongside the top insiders.

So, if you haven’t yet…
