@Mr_Derivatives

There has only been 6 other days in 2026 out of 153 days where the $VIX was lower than the current 14.97. Most of it was clustered in early January too during the Santa Rally. Generally we like to buy stocks with an elevated VIX not a depressed VIX. But sure can the VIX stay depressed longer than we think? Absolutely. But I reckon the VIX is not going to go much lower into the 13’s handles.

@Mr_Derivatives 153天里只有6天更低,说明现在市场确实太顺了,可VIX这么低往往不是买点而是该警惕的信号,万一哪天突然跳起来你仓位扛得住吗

@Mr_Derivatives Every year, this happens and I buy protection and every year I’m bag holding it for a while until it comes back even. 🥺

Low VIX isn’t automatically bearish. But at 14.97, the asymmetry is changing. Equities can keep grinding higher while volatility stays compressed — but the market is now getting paid very little for assuming nothing goes wrong. The risk isn’t “VIX must spike tomorrow.” It’s that further volatility compression offers less reward, while any surprise has much more room to reprice.

@Mr_Derivatives That said, a depressed VIX right now just means the market’s pricing in zero fear—and that’s exactly when I start looking for the hedge. My interpretation of the setups heading into the close → sessionlevels.com/t/tier1-v1-2…

@Mr_Derivatives Is the $VIX fucking retarded? There's no Iran deal and the market thinks everything is perfect.

@Mr_Derivatives AI时代,虽然资本过剩,但追求增殖的脚步仍停不下来,需求永远填不满。繁荣的技术,衰败的经济,华丽金融殿堂的地基已开始崩塌,市场随时崩溃。人类是否注定在边跑边饿的路上追问为何存在的答案?是否该觉醒了?记住是我说的👇x.com/catoliang/status/2087492…
