If you were smart (like me) then your bullish position would be shorting VIX instead of longing equities. Both are bullish, both have similar drawdown risks depending on how you scale your position, but shorting VIX gives you the extra alpha from shorting contango so that even if SPX stays flat your short VIX position will make real gains.

SPY retards have barely broken even in 2 years whereas if you shorted VIX you gained about $28 per $18 contract that you shorted.
