front month vix futures remain overbought (vx1!)the upside in short term vix futures remains muted as limitations on how far out broader market shorts in the money puts are due to backwardation in front month contracts. this is leading to derivatives like UVXY to probably continue to sell off of overbought. we could find ourselves back in the low 14s UVXY if we see 22 vix again which should be soon. if we go over 28 vix id imagine were headed for 20 UVXY. the weekly picture for vix is bearish.Shortby cerealtradesUpdated 0
VX2!-VX1! (VIX in Backwardation?)Much better to panic early than late. The VX1-VX2 spread helps you define when market participants are starting to panic. The backwardation / reversal is a sign that market participants are starting to panic. In this sense we can use it as a risk mitigation tool, including the distributions of returns for the stock market and the volatility when futures are in backwardation and when they are not. by mgiuliani221

VX - M1/V1 : M2/V2 DailyThe VIX Guy, 50 Cents isn't present. Implied VX is SKY HIGH. __________________________________ The Illusion continues to Live. A great many are going to pay the Price for being dead-ass wrong. __________________________________ I'm going to be as Subjective as the mood suits today. QE Breeds Instability Conditions under QE - the substantive change may actually be relatively minor, but this is irrelevant to speculators and Degenerate Gamblers at the Flamingo Sports Book. The reason, simple: Speculators with assets in the Bag with longer maturities will take larger capital losses with relatively small changes in interest rates under prevailing Confidence. Projecting my inner monologue is something I attempt to avoid on balance - Shake Rattle and Roll on FOMC minutes is how I'm setting up for a Deline. ______________________________________ Something very serious is about to happen, can't shake it.

VXF - Daily into 2022Volatility remains compressed with a slow and steady move lower on declining volumes. Protection is being bid at levels out the VX Curve at levels for February and March Expiries. It appears the Operators are beginning to Position ahead of the FOMC Meeting - January 25-26 (Tuesday-Wednesday). _________________________________________________________ Price Objectives for JAN VX (VXF) - 19.85 / 19.30 and the largest 2021 Daily extensions @ 15.20 & 12.30 for a Full extension. In the Chart above observe the prior two Highs with successive lower lows as VX Expanded into the end of 2021. Clear A / B / C patterns with the current move lower building "C". TIme indicates this move lower in VX Complex may continue into the first week in January. __________________________________________________________ The VX Curve remains in Contango (M1 - M4) Term Structure JAN - 20.80 @ 9.86% FEB - 22.85 @ 5.78% MAR - 24.17 @ 4.14% APR - 25.17 @ 1.71% ___________________________________________________________ October / November / December Roll to Settle arrived with Lows. The break of the 2021 50% implies there are Higher Highs ahead, from where is Time-Dependent - we can see the 3 Drives to a Low present prior to large reversals. By TIME - the same pattern suggests a Low for VX in early January. For Price - a Higher low by approximately 100 BPS. Unfortunately - there is a Large Daily Gap @ 17.35 for VFX for the Continuous Contract to Fill. __________________________________________________________ We remain patient for the Lower FIll and will wait for entry. by HK_L61117
VXF - M1/V1 VIXVX Complex has a bit more work to do to the Lower end of the Range. Year-End it is quite easy for the ALGOs to compress the Range into a Full Retracement after continued failures to move and close above the .618 @ 22.90. There remains a concerted effort to continue the compression leading the ES YM RTY to a Lift. Of concern for January, China is amassing Commodities in amounts unseen before and moving quickly to become as Food Independent and free of all imports Net of Feed Stocks. Soybeans were replaced with Corn for the Season, which is somewhat curious, as Feeder Inputs appears to be a better decision for Livestock. The CCP has been on a tear to reduce all Foreign Dependence, in excess of 84% of all Food Stuffs have been secured internally. ______________________________________________________________ It appears China is hoarding consumables and Food Stuffs. Commods should be watched closely into 2022 as actions taken by China do not occur in a vacuum. _______________________________________________________________ VX Compression was noted last week in a commentary and Chart which showed the Lower Price Objective and Compression. The Divergence within is of concern as when compression ends - This is when we see the VIX move higher, significantly higher. by HK_L617

VIX - Settlement Range for Continuous ContractSpot Vix - 22.05 VXZ - 21.45 VXF - 23.70 _________________________________________________________________ Tomorrow the New Continuous Contact for the VIX will begin trading. To project Price we need to consider the VXZ / VXF Spread (Roll Yield) and use Draws for both months to determine the Point of Convergence for Price based upon Draws for both Contracts. The VXF Chart above provides the Price Objectives and lower Gap FIlls. The VIX has been trending down for some time now and may continue the trend into year-end. Clearly, this gives the ES YM RTY room to move higher. __________________________________________________________________ We indicated yesterday the RT Potential and Price Objectives above into the Gap Fills as the Lower POs were front-run by a significant Margin. The NQ kept the 615 pivot gyrating until it moved tp and through it during the 3 PM EST to 4 PM EST Hourly Bar. In the final Hour, the NQ would trade below the 615 Pivot for the last time. ES, exactly the same pattern. YM, a bit different, but close. ___________________________________________________________________ Into Wednesday's during Settlement, we will see the direction for the rest of the year's - Low Volume Price action in all probability. We traded the Lows of the Range and the A/D was sitting on Lows, it can stabilize or Rise. It remains a very Negative indication, as do all longer TF Charts. ____________________________________________________________________ RT Anticipated, RT in Trade - Gap Fill. VFX has some catching up to do on the downside. It will provide a Lift to the Indices. Momentum Cloud to Trending Cloud Supports is the Price Objectives & Gap FIlls remain lower. by HK_L611110
VIX - VXF DailyES makes a Lower Low, VIX Higher Low. Sounds about correct for the VX Complex. Trading the 50 with no break yet implies a RAT for Indexes. .382s remains the RT POs as weakness is prevalent. __________________________________________________ Keeping VX collared is not working, the E YM NQ RTY continue to sell to lower POs. Proximity to Margin Calls is the danger now. Mid / Large Cap Winner remain in Distro. by HK_L61Updated 4
