VIX trade ideas

Schiff show: VIX gap filled.Volatility is near record lows. Low VIX is often associated with market tops. 0day options have been pushing VIX down further than normal though. Judging from the many solid candles on the monthly chart, the month often closes near tops and bottoms. So there should be plenty of time. The writing is on the wall. But it would not be surprising to see stock prices remain elevated, with correspondingly low VIX, until June 3 or later. Caption: Using the auto pitchfork indicator and choosing Schiff pitchfork reveals alignment with the gap.

VIX to $17 Soon for another key trend line resistance test!Ensure you hedge your trades and know your maximum loss and profit, especially if you have limited funds to dollar cost average or are trading options. For informational and educational purposes only, I prefer buying laddered call options on UVIX (1.5x), VXX (1x), and UVXY (2x) at sub-$13 levels over 2-4 weeks that align with my long "risk on" call expirations. This way, I can sell the pops and use the proceeds to add to my most committed "risk on" positions. Good luck! @candlestickninjatv

Market Cycles Buy and Sell Zones Benner's Prophecies on Volatil Benner's Prophecies on Volatility The chart you've shared uses a combination of historical data and predictive models, specifically focusing on Benner's prophecies, to suggest when to buy and sell in the market. Here's a simplified explanation based on what your chart illustrates: Buy Zones Buy zones are indicated by the green shaded areas. These are periods where the historical data or predictive models suggest that market volatility is low and prices may be at a trough or more stable, making it potentially a good time to purchase assets. According to your chart, upcoming buy zones are highlighted with phrases like "YES YES BUY ZONE," suggesting a strong endorsement for buying during these periods. Sell Zones Sell zones are shown in red shaded areas. These suggest times when the market is potentially at a peak or there's high volatility, indicating that it might be a wise decision to sell your holdings to either take profits or avoid a downturn. The chart marks specific years like 2019, 2035, and other highlighted points with "SELL" to denote these periods. Benner’s Prophecies Benner's prophecies are a historical predictive model that uses past market cycles to forecast future ups and downs. Samuel Benner was a farmer turned market forecaster who, after experiencing financial loss in the 1870s, developed a cyclical theory based on pig iron production cycles. His broader application to financial markets aims to predict high and low years based largely on economic cycles. According to Benner’s cycles, markets would experience a patterned recurrence in peaks and troughs, which are used in your chart to predict future market movements. How to Use This Chart for Trading Decisions: Identify the Zones: Look at the current year and compare it to the chart to see if it falls within a green or red zone. Consider Market Conditions: Even though the chart provides years labeled as buy or sell, always consider current market conditions, news, and other analyses before making a decision. Plan Accordingly: If you are nearing a red zone, plan to review your investments and possibly take profits or reduce exposure. Conversely, in a green zone, you might look for undervalued investments to acquire. Monitor Regularly: Market conditions can change rapidly, and while historical models provide a guide, they are not infallible. Regular monitoring and adjustment of your strategies are crucial. By understanding these elements, you can use the chart to make more informed decisions about when to buy and sell based on historical patterns and predicted future market behavior.

VIX Vix has been all but forgotten in an election year and a democrat controlled fiscal policy... Good fundamental and/or technical entry point as Fed's Kashkari hints at no rate cuts at all. Early this year markets priced in 6 25 basis point cuts now odds less than 50% we get only three. Jobs report in 2.5 hrs. will be the tell, be pre4pared to act if we have a downside surprise! Note: Not Advice. For advice, ask an advisor of an adviser. Past does not equal future.

no matter what way you cut it, the VIX needs 12.50 firstno matter what way you cut it, the VIX needs 12.50 before it rallies and the markets correct. We should bounce at 12.50 with an 80% probability, but before our major market correction, again we will post sub 12$ pps tape hits on the VIX, but i think we bounce again at 12.50 and continue this way until Q3-Q4 when we threaten the sub $12 market, but we may like in past corrections, hit sub $12 months before rallying, sub $12 on the VIX is not a trigger it's a sign for something imminent it may happen right away or months later.

Attention! Signs That Our Pullback Is Over.Traders, Previously, you know that I had anticipated that our pullback might last a bit longer through May. However, today the charts are showing me that this might not be the case. Let's start with the SPY. Originally, I had predicted a touch of the bottom of the RED channel. Then, based upon my analysis of the dollar, VIX, precious metals, and mega-corp stocks, I thought that it might be possible for SPY to even enter into the orangish-yellow area. Today, the SPY has popped back above the RED channel and is now doing battle with our 50 Day SMA. This is a bullish indicator for sure. If we can beat the 50 day by CoB today, we'll have a fairly good indicator that our pullback may be over. We'll need more indicators to agree of course, but this is a good start. The VIX agrees rn, as it has broken below support and fear continues to drop. The dollar also agrees. Previously, I had anticipated a touch of that 107 level. Nope. The dollar has decided to break down and out of our bearish megaphone pattern early. We knew it was going to happen soon and so we were prepared. I am happy to report the news because with the dollar down and the VIX down you all know what this usually indicates for stocks right? UP. ...And our blow-off top continues into the election months as expected. Then a crash. Of course, we'll need a confirmation candle on the daily for all of the above. If we get that, on we go. Watch all of these today and on Monday into next week. Monday (and next week) will be key as those days will give us the confirmation candle that we need, especially for the VIX and DXY. If they don't continue to break down, that will be our first warning that this was all a big head fake and we'll still have further pullback to weather out. This all influences crypto. That is why it is necessary to track. As always, I'll keep you up to date on these developments.

Strategic Approach to Volatility Trading: Preparing for VIX DownWhen the VIX drops below $12, it's time to consider a cautious approach. Instead of jumping in headfirst, I gradually enter long positions in UVIX and UVXY calls over the course of one week to several months, while directly holding onto VIX, UVIX, and UVXY. Past experiences with mistimed UVXY Long Calls, particularly during the pre and post-COVID periods, have taught me to be wary of recency and confirmation biases. To navigate these waters, I adopt the perspective of a five-star general overseeing a drone center, analyzing the market with precision. While I anticipate fluctuations, my outlook remains bearish until the VIX hits $12, taking into account both short-term ups and downs. This is a strategy geared towards a relatively long or intermediate-term perspective, focusing on the bigger picture.
