VIX trade ideas

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.

VIX Volatility Index ~ Trend Analysis (2H Chart)TVC:VIX chart mapping/analysis. Always been a firm-believer in strong negative correlation with SPX. Key is not matching SPX highs with VIX lows ie "catching the bottom" - it should be used as a supplementary indicator for overall market direction, by identifying key support/resistance areas for trend switches that aids you in developing a Trading Edge . Chart Example: October 2022 peak in VIX marked (temporary?) bottom in SPX VIX unable to break above ~34 resistance zone after multiple attempts = gives way to lower highs & lower lows (change in trend) SPX responds by making series of higher highs & higher lows VIX bottoms around July 2023, unable to break below ~13 resistance zone (ie trend switch) SPX peaks in July & proceeds to pull back until recent reversal - coinciding with dramatic drop in volatility This is by no means a done & dusted chart - after all it's called the "Volatility Index" lol. It will require ongoing tweaking, back-testing & confluence with SPX TA work, as well as vigilance of evolving macro-economic events which get rapidly priced into both indices. Good luck :) Note: "SPX TEMP BOTTOM horizontal line should be adjusted higher to sit on VIX peaks - can't edit chart & cbf re-publishing...but you get the idea, cheers.

Vix Minor 3: For real this timeUltimately, the last idea was early and invalidated, accordingly. I do think the count is nowripe for a Minor 3 to develop. Price is still 1s and 2s, but over the next 4-6 days, I will be observing short ES and NQ entries and looking to strike. If trading VIX, long entries could be nice, here, because we are in a range and maybe vega available. Plenty of confusion. In that regard, I want to point out that what looks like Minute ((ii)) in ES actually went lower in VIX, so if this is correct, the way that Vix is calculated may necessarily "force" it break EWT rules. Just an idea that I hear more discussion about. I am no mathematician, but find the query interesting. Will update as the track unfolds. Best, Cuz

Moment of truthIs VIX breaking out? SPY hit very hard the support trendline, is like it wants break it down. I think we will have a bloody battle at this level, a lot of volatility. Several attempts to break the support. If it breaks it at first attempt, that's it, crash will come. I'm holding my longs and selling covered calls, I'm not selling anything, actually I'm buying stocks and selling calls. Just bought Intel and Newmont yesterday. If crash happens, it will probably last a few months, I'm ok with that. In the mean time I'm selling calls and collect dividends. I will only sell stocks that I don't like much, only a few ones.

VIX - A storm is brewingTVC:VIX may have reached a significant bottom during today's volatile trading session. As seen below, the recent rug pull shown on the 1D chart has finally concluded; almost to the exact penny. When we step back and look at the weekly timeframe, VIX is currently bouncing higher off of a major bullish divergence that was built up over the past several months. The RSI is also retesting the neutral line (50) and TVC:VIX itself has closed on a major support level. If TVC:VIX continues its move higher next week, we could see a significant drop in the S&P500 Disclaimer: Any information contained within this post does not constitute any financial, investment, or trading advice.
