$VIX I Want to Get HighLast time we posted about the TVC:VIX we Enabled Holy Sh*T Mode. Shortly there after the TVC:VIX broke above 66 in no time. The TVC:VIX is a very easy counter indicator to the market to read. When CCI the CCI breaks out on any time frame from the 2 hour up, there is almost always guaranteed to be a market downturn in the near future. Even though TVC:VIX futures were disconnected from the TVC:VIX a few years ago, the indicator while strange, acts the same. The Monthly, Quarterly and Yearly AMEX:VIS have been flashing major warning signs as the CCI teases a Major Technical breakout above the Zero momentum line. All Three are flashing above this line yet again. The higher the chart CCI breakout on the TVC:VIX , the larger and swifter the pullback becomes. Keep your eyes peeled, or get peeled.

THE MUST-SEE CHART YOU DIDN'T KNOW YOU NEEDED!The TVC:VIX VIX (Volatility Index), often referred to as the "Fear Gauge," measures market volatility expectations based on options prices for the SP:SPX S&P 500 index over the next 30 days. It reflects the sentiment of market participants about future volatility, with higher values indicating more anticipated volatility (often associated with market fear or uncertainty) and lower values reflecting calm market conditions. Investors frequently use the TVC:VIX VIX as a tool for assessing market risk, especially during periods of market turbulence or significant economic events. Since it tends to rise when the stock market declines, it is often seen as a hedge against market downturns. It's important for traders and analysts, particularly in the context of options trading and for assessing overall market sentiment. The TVC:VIX VIX's relationship with the cryptocurrency market, particularly with BNC:BLX Bitcoin and other major assets, can offer insights into market sentiment across traditional and digital financial spaces. While the TVC:VIX VIX primarily reflects volatility in the U.S. equity market, changes in its level can indirectly impact cryptocurrencies in the following ways: 1. Market Sentiment Correlation: High VIX: A rising VIX indicates fear or uncertainty in traditional markets. In times of high volatility, investors tend to move away from risky assets, including cryptocurrencies, leading to potential sell-offs in both markets. However, some may consider Bitcoin a hedge during extreme cases of fear, driving demand as a "digital gold" asset. Low VIX: A lower VIX reflects calm and stability, which may encourage investors to take on more risk. This could benefit high-risk, high-reward assets like cryptocurrencies, potentially driving capital into Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptos. 2. Liquidity and Risk-Off/Risk-On Dynamics: In a risk-off environment (high VIX), institutional and retail investors often reduce exposure to volatile assets like crypto, leading to a potential liquidity crunch and sell-offs. Conversely, a risk-on environment (low VIX) may signal that investors are more willing to take risks, increasing liquidity and driving up crypto prices. 3. Crypto's Evolving Correlation with Equities: Over time, there has been an evolving correlation between the S&P 500 and Bitcoin, particularly during times of high macroeconomic stress (e.g., during the COVID-19 pandemic or interest rate hikes). As VIX tracks equity market sentiment, rising volatility in equities often spills into crypto markets. In bull markets or periods of equity recovery, crypto markets may also benefit from an inflow of capital, reducing VIX levels and increasing crypto prices simultaneously. 4. Hedging and Diversification: Some institutional investors use the VIX as part of their hedging strategy when managing portfolios with exposure to equities and cryptocurrencies. For example, a high VIX may prompt them to move into stablecoins or reduce exposure to speculative assets. In the future, more sophisticated products like a "crypto volatility index" may emerge, mirroring the role of the VIX but for digital assets. 5. Macro Events: Major macroeconomic events, such as central bank decisions or geopolitical events, can cause both the VIX to rise and have similar effects on crypto volatility. During such periods, correlations between traditional and digital markets may strengthen. feargreedmeter.com The VIX (Volatility Index) and the Crypto Fear and Greed Index serve similar purposes by gauging market sentiment, but they do so in different ways and in distinct markets. Below is a comparison between the two: 1. Purpose and Market Focus VIX (Volatility Index): Market: Traditional financial markets, specifically the S&P 500. Purpose: Measures expected volatility in the S&P 500 over the next 30 days based on options prices. It’s often used as an indicator of fear or complacency in the U.S. stock market. Focus: Short-term volatility expectations, acting as a “fear gauge” for equity market participants. Crypto Fear and Greed Index: Market: Cryptocurrency markets, with a strong emphasis on Bitcoin. Purpose: Measures the emotional sentiment of the crypto market by analysing multiple factors to determine whether the market is driven by fear or greed. Focus: Broader emotional sentiment rather than technical market volatility. It tracks how much fear or optimism is present among crypto traders. 2. Inputs and Calculation VIX: Derived from the implied volatility of options on the S&P 500. It looks at a range of call and put options to estimate expected price swings in the market. Key Factors: Options market data, specifically the prices investors are willing to pay to hedge against future volatility in the stock market. Crypto Fear and Greed Index: Combines various inputs to capture overall market sentiment. These include: Volatility: Tracks Bitcoin volatility and compares it with historical trends. Increased volatility is associated with fear. Market Momentum/Volume: Rising buying volumes signal greed while declining volumes suggest fear. Social Media Sentiment: Analyses mentions, hashtags, and engagement on social media related to crypto topics, reflecting hype or panic. Surveys : Sometimes include survey data from market participants. Dominance: Focuses on Bitcoin’s dominance in the market. Rising dominance suggests fear (as investors flock to Bitcoin for safety) while decreasing dominance implies a risk-on environment. Google Trends: Looks at search query trends for cryptocurrency terms, reflecting public interest and sentiment. 3. Interpretation VIX: Higher VIX (>20): Indicates high expected volatility, often interpreted as fear in the market. Investors are anticipating larger price swings, usually in a negative direction. Lower VIX (<20): Suggests a calm market with lower expected volatility, often indicating complacency or a bullish outlook in the equity markets. Crypto Fear and Greed Index: 0-24 (Extreme Fear): Indicates significant fear in the crypto market. Traders may be overly concerned about price drops, which could lead to buying opportunities based on contrarian strategies. 25-49 (Fear): The market is still cautious, with more sellers than buyers. 50-74 (Greed): Optimism and confidence are high, with traders taking on more risk. 75-100 (Extreme Greed): Overconfidence or euphoria in the market. This is often seen as a warning that the market may be overbought, making a correction likely. 4. Time Horizon VIX: It focuses on expected short-term volatility (the next 30 days), meaning it's more of a short-term indicator of market swings. Crypto Fear and Greed Index: A broader measure of overall sentiment, not specifically tied to volatility or timeframes, it captures emotional extremes in the market that could persist for days, weeks, or longer. 5. Use Cases for Investors VIX: Used by traditional investors to gauge risk in the stock market. When the VIX is high, it can be a signal to hedge positions, reduce exposure to equities, or take advantage of volatility-driven strategies like options trading. During periods of low volatility, investors may become complacent and could be blindsided by sudden spikes in the VIX, often driven by external events (e.g., geopolitical issues or economic reports). Crypto Fear and Greed Index: Helps crypto traders assess the general market mood. Extreme fear can signal potential buying opportunities (contrarian strategy), while extreme greed may indicate an overheated market, possibly a time to sell or de-risk. Useful for emotional market analysis in a space that is known for strong, irrational sentiment swings, making it a helpful tool for timing market entries and exits. 6. Impact on Price VIX: Typically inversely correlated with stock prices. A rising VIX often accompanies a falling stock market, and vice versa. Crypto Fear and Greed Index: A sentiment indicator is not directly tied to price movements, but extreme readings can signal turning points or potential corrections in crypto prices due to market overreactions.
