CBOE S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX)

[Penny Roger$]

It has very beautiful moves imo. However, unlike the ranges we see here, the ETF plunges because of dilution. Penny stock ETF's

VIX has a mind of it's own.

Once we reverse in a real way this one should pick up some again imo.

This is mainly an indicator of trends and like the ADX it can be very messy.

[TOUCAN]

really surprised this board is so quiet for so long Feb 2012 last.

WAKE UP VIX BOARD!!!!

[GhostMOMENTUM]

agree.
vxx low 24's too.
still bullish market but I could see a pullback of some sort happen perhaps even next week.

[RonnieD]

for $1.86

[NFLFan]

Loading time here on the VIX! Worth a hold for even 3 months to a year! In a bearish market, I'm very bullish here!

Let's go!

Hey you have any thoughts on the VIX at current levels? I was thinking feb calls...

[chichi2]

CBOE Market Volatility Index (VIX - 41.25) repeated a pattern that we've been seeing lately, quickly moving to the 40 area from the prior week's close near 31. Last week's VIX advance was different from other recent moves, as it traded above 42.56, breaking a pattern of lower highs. The action in the VIX could be favorable to bears, as the broken string of lower highs could be signaling a move above the 50 area, or at the very least, another move up to 50. As we have said before, most VIX rallies dating back to 1997 have peaked in the 50 area, including the one in early August.

I was early on VIXKY but I think I may have a winner here

[Stock]

VIX could have a bounce on here

[Stock]

I have a little put action now... VIXKY -- this is agressive, i would recommend ITM strikes if you are trading the move.

Any comments on the FAZ? As long as the market heads South doesn't Vix and Faz head North? Generally speaking.

[Stock]

An important VIX chart

[Stock]

VIX December 30s -- still a big spread and just a double... "Just" he says... well, the point it, trading those would not be a good idea... stil to closer strikes on timing entries.

Is the VIX losing support here?

VIX looking a little overbought in this time frame

[Option Cowboy]

Jumped on the VIX NOV 22.50 CALLS - 2.75
Hope I get this one right...........

[Stock]

The VIX strike I was looking at has a 25 cent spread now... I am glad I did not get those... would have been a bad trade.

They have no volume...

[Stock]

I was looking at VIX calls today, put in a low bid on December 30s, but did not get a fill.

[Bull Trader]

i agree.

[detearing]

I wish I shorted VIX at 80 owell. The VIX is about to the normal from the 5 year prior to the jump. I would like to see the doomsayers put money on the VIX to ride it back up but they would not be likely to do so. I like to watch the VIX as a barometer of the condition of the economy and it is looking great IMO.

[Stock]

VIX cliff dive coming

[Stock]

I am short the vig again today at 21

[Greencake]

looking good Cap'm.....

Congrats!

Nice to have you on the board.....


Thanks again Friend and have a fine weekend,

JT

[Stock]

I added to VIX short just now. Wish me luck!
Bullish three drives -- VIX breakout? No way!

[Stock]

I think today is a good day to short the VIX. Short volatility from 19 to 15

[Stock]

Today's most active VIX options:

I find it really odd that the $30 call expiring next Friday should be up 200% today. Thay is skewed. It closed a nickel Tuesday and 15 cents today, but still, 200% is out of the norm.

VIX ~ medium chart

[dr_praeses]

VIX - picked up 1 VIX Aug 19c @ 2.0 and have an order in for one more

Interesting thing about the VIX callls ~ you can get a lot of them with a 100 delta. And thus, the gamma is 0. Theta is very small too--not much time premium decay. For me, it's -.27 on the whole position. Lose only a quarter a day? Sounds GREAT to me!
