The CBOE release is both educational in nature and topical. In a video segment filmed just a few days ago, Ben Londergan, Co-CEO of Group One Trading and the designated primary market maker in CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) options, offered his opinion on what VIX/SPX levels may now be indicating and whether there is “complacency” in the market.
Five other CBOE traders discuss misconceptions about the VIX in separate videos.
Historical price charts, VIX milestones achieved during the financial crisis of 2008, and other links give a complete picture of VIX, an index which has become one of the most widely followed indexes today.
