Vix Jump for Selling Puts or Buying CallsThis script aims to identify optimal times when to write Puts for premium, for example using the SPX Weeklies model or simply buying Calls. Not perfect but provides some additional confidence when playing Puts on SPX or the Wheel on SPY.
What it does:
We compare current VIX with a lookback VIX for X% delta. If there is a jump of say 20% over a defined period then that would indicate an opportunity to sell Puts, run a straddle or buy Calls. We use VVIX as a check to stop to many false positives ie VVIX falls of faster than VIX.
You can also use this loosely as a bottom finder.
VVIX
The dispersion of volatility indicesThe script is my implementation of "Forecasting a Volatility Tsunami" by Andrew Thrasher (Thrasher Analytics). You can find the paper here: www.researchgate.net
I've changed a bit the approach - instead of two volatility indices (VIX & VVIX), I used two more: VXN and VXD. Additionally, I average the percentiles, but there is an option to swtich it to the original approach.
Correlation overlayThe script is intended to indicate when the correlation between VIX and VVIX gets below 0, on the selecteted security chart. It makes sense to plot it on indicies. This aims to present how the chart of a security looked like when the divergance between VIX and VVIX happened.
