VIX trade ideas

VIX - A strong warning to inexperienced investors! In September 2022, we warned investors about the volatility creeping back into the market and set price targets of 30 USD and 35 USD. Subsequently, in the following days after our warning, VIX skyrocketed, hit our price target of 30 USD, and halted its rise at 34.88 USD. Despite the index halting its climb merely 0.12 USD below our price target, we remain very bullish. Indeed, we still expect our short-term price target of 35 USD to be reached within days or weeks. However, we believe that VIX will not stop there but will continue higher, increasing the odds of a market crash. In our opinion, once VIX breaks above the range shown in the title picture, the market volatility conditions will start to resemble the market crash in 2020. That would align with what we outlined about the general stock market progressing into the second stage of the bear market, which will be confirmed by declining corporate earnings over time. As a result, we expect trading conditions to become substantially more challenging; therefore, we voice a word of caution to inexperienced and lay traders. Illustration 1.01 Illustration 1.01 displays the daily chart of VIX and two trendlines highlighting the uptrend. Illustration 1.02 Illustration 1.02 shows the daily chart of the Nasdaq continuous futures, which have declined more than 30%. Additionally, the graph shows other major U.S. indices, all in the bear market territory. Please feel free to express your ideas and thoughts in the comment section.

If fear continues to dump, it might be lights out for the bears!Traders, Everything is playing out exactly as anticipated. U.S. Dollar topped. S&P500 looks to be double-bottoming. Bitcoin has broken to the top side of a year-long bullish descending wedge. And fear continues to dump. If all these charts continue to work in correlation together, it might be indicating "lights out" for those bears. Watch these things closely or follow me as I keep you all up to date on the progress on all. Best, Stew

VIX - Volatility is likely to continue higher In tandem with our expectations, VIX reached our short-term price target of 30 USD during the FED meeting, constituting a new high. This development hints at a deepening bear market, which foreshadows a more significant spike in volatility over the coming months. We draw this conclusion from a combination of factors. These include fundamental factors on the level of central banks, like higher interest rates and quantitative tightening, and technical factors associated with major stock market indices, all pointing to more weakness ahead. Due to that, we have no reason to change our bullish bias on the volatility index. Accordingly, we stick to our price target of 35 USD; however, we would like to change it from a medium-term price target to a short-term price target.

VIX Another RejectionIt looks like VIX 4hr has had yet another rejection off the key structure resistance. There were quite a few big out of the money call buyers on the Nov 16 calls and they all cashed in at resistance again which is always interesting to watch. This is mostly institutional buyers. Meanwhile the retail stock option traders are holding record put options on stocks totaling over 34 million contracts. Was it a massive bear trap that we saw on stocks? Time will tell how much short covering we see in this attempted rally.
