Another little Vix Monday gap up, back to the 20 area; after hitting a new 3month low on Friday. 20's been the level it's been struggling to get back above/stay above this year; unlike most of last year.

Market participants are also aware that several influential central banks are holding meetings this week, namely the Federal Reserve, the Bank of England, and the European Central Bank.
