Why are strategies with vxx in the symlist not working correctly?

apply to symlist(vxx)
set{spy,ind(spy,close)}
vxx > vxx 1 day ago
spy > spy 1 day ago

Exit on opposite

set{spy,ind(spy,close)}
vxx > vxx 1 day ago
spy > spy 1 day ago

Your syntax is the issue ...

Obviously this works. The issue is that both the SPY and VXX were down today.
