How to Trade the VIX Stock Market Fear Index

How to Trade the VIX

There are a few different options for investors
who want to know how to trade the VIX
when market volatility surges.

And with the VIX recently trading as low as 11
and still in the mid-teens,
now is a great time to play the VIX.

"This is one time you can be very confident
that an investment recommendation is going to pay off,
" Shah said.

"Markets always go down.
Fear always returns.

There's always another crash."
It's only a matter of when.


The VIX,
is a reflection of the price of calls and puts on the S&P 500.

As a contrarian indicator,
the VIX usually has an inverse relationship
with the markets.

When the market is rallying
the VIX tends to drop;

when the market is tanking
the VIX tends to rise.
