VIX is gonna MIX it UP UP UP!!Please refer to last weeks post. Market has shown its hand, I seen enough strength in daily volume profiles supporting my composites zones. Will it RIP to the upside next week and into the new year? There is a much higher probability on the facts I have seen. FEAR not only has crept in - but now I see it!! Keep SL's tight its gonna get crazy! Nuf said peace out!VLongby Dips007Trading221
Here's another gap for you JEDISDEAD!!With the VIX almost exact opposite of the SPY, the gaps on both ends tell me SPY will dip a little, and head up to fill the gap. A chicken gets full one peck at a time :) by sprschnabel1

VIX looking to fall below the trend line before rocketing.....So I'm just pointing out this current thingy because a lot of you guys have pointed out that 2022 looks a lot like 2008 on SP500. Well. Looks like VIX is acting weird too. Leave your comments please. Longby ChangoMan2

VIX 2008 vs 2022It is actually a pair I decided to use, no reason behind it, just testing stuff. The behavior of VVIX*VIX is very similar to what happened in 2008. Is a crash coming or are they messing with our heads? Maybe they orchestrated it so similar to confuse us into thinking we are falling.Shortby julius36435332
VIX technical analysis, does that even work?Could be making a megaphone for santas rally. Would need to break the median $21ish area to continue down and fill the gap. It made a lower price from the area it broke out of the recent down trend. Breaking $21 would be confirmation of a Re-test of the down trend line. If the median holds i would suspect VIX to continue upwards and make a higher high taking the wind out of santas sleigh. by RLB5121
VIX Watch the close above that yellow trendline and ideallyVIX Watch the close above that yellow trendline and ideally above yesterday's close to get a confirmation of the turn today If SPX gets to my first support zone at 3984-88 then VIX has a potential to get above that yellow trendline Now lets do itby RealTima11
Double BottomThe VIX showed signs of bottoming and wanting to head higher in December. Right now, the VIX is signaling the market may have a rise in volatility with index losses as we exit 2022. Things change though. The VIX is a derivative of the S&P 500's options and not the index itself. The VIX is based on the out-of-the-money calls and puts of the S&P 500 30 days out. The options market provides insight into the market's expectations, thus allowing it to be a tool for where the S&P 500 is headed. Will we have a Santa Claus rally? Dunno No recommendationby lauralea0
VIX closed above the maj bull trendline!Its a very important close for the VIX, all in one day! VIX closed at HOD and the markets closed above HOD! Tomorrow's expected move 3.7% on average - If CPI comes at 7.8% it will be 5% down day - If CPI comes at 6.9% then it should go up 6-7% My bet is we go lower or the vice versa from Oct 13th, where it gap down and then bid all day. So if second scenario then we should gap up in markets tomorrow and sell all day! by RealTima4412
VIX Regression To The Mean?Big week for markets, stronger than anticipated economic data COULD send the VIX back to he teens and kick-off a nice equities rally. I'm mostly out and NEUTRAL right now but am ready for a breakout or breakdown. Leaning toward breakout....by GunMoney441
VIX Daily Rising GapThe VIX gapped higher, what we also call a rising window. We know these gaps tend to be filled but looking back at August, the VIX gapped right before starting a bullish wave. This is a repeating pattern. For us a signal. The VIX is about to move higher, in a matter of days. Namaste.Longby AlanSantana889
S&P Vix and NiftyS&P Vix and Nifty are more closely correlated than one thinks. The movements between the 2 resembles an identical, thou not exact, mirror image. Will this be the top for Nifty as Vix rises from here?by Super_Alien0
No, the VIX isn't riggedVIX at the weekly view. I didn't have time to write this last week due to a hectic schedule. Better late than never, I guess. The VIX broke the weekly resistance and bounced from the pivot zone (white line). A smaller VIX spike is in progress. No, I am not expecting above 40 at all. Maybe mid-30s at the higher end. It would be nice if I am wrong so more opportunities can arise... With the relatively big contango going on between VIX and VX, you would need extreme, precise timing in VX long entries and exits... I don't like babysitting trades at all - where there is no margin for error. I prefer trades were I am allowed to have plenty of margin for error (easier trades). It seems that my red line still lives on which I am very surprised. It should expire in the next quarter... but it's hard to pinpoint. Even then, cash (or cash equivalents) is still still king. Why is that important? The biggest VIX spikes were driven due to 1 particular reason: excessive demand for hedges in SPX /ES options. There is no "suppression" program as conspiracy theorists claim on social media. There is no mysterious group (often called "they") that magically pull levers to control all markets. That type of thinking is a losing mentality. That mentality means the person lost a lot and wants to blame someone else other than himself/herself. It's like a grown adult blaming all their problems on their parents. It's a very unhealthy coping mechanism. As stated before, there are 3 reasons why the VIX won't spike hard despite big red days in the SPX or ES. 1) When short-term bond yields are high and in an uptrend (bond prices in a downtrend), cash becomes king (not trash). So, when positions are being sold, the money is then flowed into cash equivalents like treasury bonds and securities. That means there is less money going to hedges. VIX doesn't get a big spike if there less demand for hedges. 2) When the bonds are sinking (yields rising), there is also sector rotation from growth to cyclical stocks. More specifically, dividend value stocks become more attractive. That just means money is just rotating among sectors within the SPX /ES. There are little hedges being bought during this rotation... as it's just trading shares for shares. 3) Hedges were meant to protect gains in investments. If the investment is at a loss, then there is no need for a hedge since that would unnecessarily tie up more capital. When cash is king, it makes more sense just to sell for tax-loss harvesting (to offset gains for tax purposes) than to add more stress with hedges. Imagine if you had $1 million in gains this year and you then owe over $400,000 in taxes. Most likely, you would worry about how to lower your tax liability. Tax-loss harvesting is a common method. Hedges were meant to protect gains so the investments would reach the long-term capital gains tax rate (which is significantly lower). It is NOT an inverse index nor some sort of fear index (which the media loves to label it as). Normally, if I see something who treats it that way, it's a red flag that they never bothered studying the VIX and VX. The VIX loves to punish anyone who is impatient or anyone didn't bother to understand its mechanics. Imagine the VIX like piloting a commercial or transport plane. If you don't understand the flight control systems thoroughly, you will likely crash the plane.by Itsallsotiresome112

Volatility S&P 500 Index (VIX) | Goes GREEN/Bullish!It is no secret, when the major indexes move down, the VIX goes up. We can see the inverse correlation quite easily as the VIX had a major bearish wave, from Sept. to Nov., just as the DJI and SPX moved up. Now the VIX bottomed late November and this week closed above MA200 and EMA300. The first green week in multiple months. Ok, let's predict the future. The VIX will move first to 27.90, easily. It can go higher and hit 30 and also higher... 33. Midterm (1-3 months). Long-term (3-6 months or longer) ... Above 43 and even 58. Ok! Let's just wait, nobody can predict the future... And these are just codes... You are looking at squares and lines on a screen... Really? We will see! Thank you for reading. Namaste.Longby AlanSantana228
