Which product/segment do you think will experience the most Volatility over the coming trading week (through the close on Friday 2/20) SPY SPX VIX WTI Crude Gold Bitcoin BTC GLD USO S&P500: SPY, SPX. VIX Gold: GLD, Comex Crude Oil: WTI, USOF Bitcoin: BTCListener questions and comments:
Question from Loades - What will it take to get VIX back into the 15 handle?Comment from Jack -I'm with the questioner from last week. It's a huge pain to figure out which VIX future the weekly options are trading on. CBOE needs to hold more brokers feet to the fire to surface that stuff much more readily. Question from Alfred - Any updates on the VIX whistle blower? Comment from Chingis - Dudes, how about a weekly rundown of the hot VIX ETFs and ETNs? Question from Elandra -If you could have your ideal volatility product what would it be? Question from DKMan - Why no options on TVIX?
