VIX trade ideas

VIX New Low is Probably Bullish for StocksOn 12/08/23 the VIX made a new low in its decline from the high in early 2022. The vast majority of the time the SPX will make its ultimate top with a VIX at a higher bottom. Please note what happened in early 2022. This is just one example of several VIX bottoming divergences over a period of many years. The VIX is very effective at catching important SPX tops. There's a high probabilty the SPX could continue higher until at least late December/early January 2024.

The VIX will be up 8% soon. 1. Higher Than Expected NFP Report: If the Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) report is higher than expected, indicating strong job growth, it could lead to increased market optimism. Paradoxically, this positive news might also cause concern among investors. They might worry that a robust job market could prompt the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates to prevent the economy from overheating. Higher interest rates can make borrowing more expensive for companies, potentially affecting corporate profits and slowing down economic growth. This uncertainty can lead to higher market volatility, causing the VIX to increase. 2. Apple's Declining Sales: If Apple reports a 3% drop in sales after close, it could negatively impact investor confidence in the technology sector and the overall market. Apple is a significant component of major stock indices like the S&P 500 and NASDAQ. A decline in Apple's sales could lead investors to reevaluate their portfolios and adopt a more cautious approach, contributing to market uncertainty and potentially increasing the VIX. 3. Current Daily Support Level and Fibonacci Retracement: Technical analysis suggests that the market is currently at a daily support level and below the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level in the weekly price range. Traders often pay attention to these levels as potential turning points in the market. If the market breaches these support levels, it could trigger selling pressure and increase market volatility, reflected in a higher VIX. In summary, a combination of a strong NFP report, Apple's declining sales, and technical factors indicating a potential market reversal could lead to increased uncertainty and higher market volatility, causing the VIX to rise. Investors tend to react to unexpected news and technical levels, which can influence market sentiment and impact the VIX accordingly.

Making Sense of the VIXWhat is the VIX and why is it relevant to investors? The Volatility Index, known as the VIX or FEAR index, helps measure how much the stock market might swing in the future. It looks at options prices on the S&P 500, hinting at how investors feel and what they expect in the market. 1. Checking Risk: The VIX tells us how unsure or risky the market might be. A high VIX means more ups and downs, suggesting possible market drops or significant price changes. Traders and investors use this to see how much risk they take and adjust their plans. 2. Protecting Investments: Large investors use the VIX to make plans that protect their investments. When the VIX is high, they might buy certain types of contracts to reduce potential losses if the market drops. 3. Deciding When to Buy or Sell: Some people use the VIX to decide when it’s an excellent time to jump into or out of the market. If the VIX is high, it could be a chance to buy stocks at lower prices. If it’s low, it might mean the market is too high and could go down soon. 4. Trading on Volatility: Some traders focus on the ups and downs of the VIX itself. They use special contracts tied to the VIX to try and make money from short-term changes in its level. 5. Contrarian Investing: Contrarian investors often take positions opposite to the prevailing market sentiment. If most investors are optimistic and buying, contrarians may be more inclined to sell or short the asset. Conversely, if most investors are pessimistic and selling, contrarians may see it as an opportunity to buy. Successful contrarian investing requires patience and discipline. In simple terms, the VIX is like a weather forecast for the stock market. It helps investors know if it will be calm or stormy so they can plan accordingly. What is the VIX telling us now? The global geopolitical lanscape has been deteriorating steadily over the past few years and the Volatility Index has collapsed to its pre- Covid price level. That’s what we call a bargain.

The odds of another spike in the VIX are growingOn Friday, the Volatility S&P 500 Index reached new lows unseen since January 2020. What is intriguing about this situation is that new lows in the value of the VIX tended to be followed by a subsequent spike in the index and weakness in the U.S. stock market (over the past year or so). Considering that the recovery of the Chinese stock market is starting to show signs of stagnation, with the Shanghai Composite Index and Hang Seng Index moving increasingly sideways, we are again on high alert. The odds of stock market reversal and spike in the VIX are growing. Illustration 1.01 Illustration 1.01 displays the daily chart of the Shanghai Composite Index, Hang Seng Index, and S&P 500 Index.

Decoding the VIX: Unraveling Market Sentiment in 2023's LowThis week, we've observed some intriguing movements in the VIX index, revealing key insights about the current state of market volatility. The VIX, often referred to as the market's 'fear gauge', achieved a new low for 2023, signaling a period of reduced market anxiety and volatility. This trend is especially noteworthy as the VIX typically inversely correlates with market performance, and its current levels are the lowest observed in four years. Historically, such low levels in the VIX have at times preceded market downturns, as seen in the past following significant events like the Silicon Valley Bank failure. This pattern suggests a potential caution for traders despite the current calm in the market.

Back to trading the Vix?The market is in a euphoric state and we are expecting 2024 to be yet another strong year for the stock market. But if you pay attention, the Russell 2000 decoupled from the rest of the market, and the recovery has been sluggish. A possible sign that the general market is not as healthy as we price it to be. The Vix always trades in a channel during euphoric market conditions with outbursts when something triggers fear. If a trader trades this channel, it will be quite easy to make some good returns.

#VIXI was writing once about #VIX: As history shows, the VIX can move around these values for a longer time too. This means that even if we come to 15, 11, 8-9, it is not necessary to wait for an instant market crash. We can get a not bad rally. In front of you Monthly chart of #VIX There is still space to go down. Be careful when #VIX touches levels below ***11.14 - 8.77*** Ince the price comes there - it is when you should look for shorts. Also RSI on M TF shows me that there is still a place where to go. I highlighted levels at ***40.67$*** and ***38.91%*** on RSI for you, when its time to pay extra attention and look for shorts. You can see that whenever RSI was coming there, the market was doing a pullback.

VIX is nearing 13! It's time to open a bullish VIX position 🚀✅ The VIX is nearing 13. Based on my analysis, this might be a good moment to consider cutting back on stocks and opening a bullish VIX position. I went long on a VIX CALL with a 10th strike. Historically, the VIX has rebounded from the 13 level. I'll increase the position if the VIX retreats further and take profit when it encroaches on the 16-19 bracket. Remember to always manage your risk. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Happy trading!📈🚀

$VIX indicating market exhaustionI have been observing this closely. What I see is use now going to a third retest of a C19 lows forming a triple bottom and effectively indicating end of this bullish move that had carried across since Sep last year. As we are entering triple-tested overbought condition on CBOE:SPX believe we are holding the final straw waiting for a market catalyst that wil send prices lower. I also put this in the context of recent wall-street driven CRYPTOCAP:BTC rally and general market anticipation of 40K price milestone and heavily overbought conditions on low volume similar to the double top the past bull market.
