Don Kaufman here.
|
Sit down, tune in, and turn on because we're diving into something you probably aren't watching—but you absolutely should be. |
Forget the S&P's intraday struggles or Tesla's ongoing freefall (seriously, Elon, what's going on?). Today, we're talking about VVIX, the volatility of volatility. Yeah, it's meta, and it's powerful. |
What the hell is the VVIX? |
It's the volatility of the VIX options market, and it's like the market's fear-o-meter on steroids. |
When the VVIX starts moving higher, it means the big players—the hedge funds, the institutions, the money managers—are buying protection like their portfolios are on fire. |
And trust me, people, when they panic, you better pay attention. |
So, grab your coffee (or whatever legal stimulant you're running on), because I'm about to show you why the VVIX is your new best friend. |

The VVIX: Your Early Warning System |
Let's back up for a second. You've heard of the VIX, right? The so-called "fear gauge" that measures implied volatility in the S&P 500. |
But here's the thing: The VIX is reactive—it tells you what's already happening. The VVIX, on the other hand, is like the VIX's psychic twin. It spikes before the real trouble hits. |
When the VVIX climbs above 110, it's the market's version of a tornado siren. It means the pros are hedging BIG TIME. And when the pros are nervous, you should be too. Why? |
Because they don't hedge unless they see something nasty coming down the pike. Think of the VVIX as the canary in the coal mine—except this canary has a Ph.D. in market chaos. |
|
|
|
Why the VVIX Matters Right Now |
Here's the deal: The VVIX is sitting near 100 today, creeping higher but not yet in full panic mode. That's your warning sign. Institutions are starting to load up on protection because they know this market is fragile. |
And let me be clear: just because the S&P 500 hasn't completely melted down yet doesn't mean we're in the clear. If anything, the calm is what's scary. It's like the market is holding its breath, waiting for the next big shoe to drop. |
What's the VVIX telling us? |
That the big players are buying VIX options like they're bargain hunting at Costco. They're not doing it for fun—they're preparing for something. And when they're preparing, you should be too. |

|
What You Can Do About It |
Alright, so now you're staring at the VVIX and thinking, "Cool, Don, but how does this make me money?" Relax, I got you. Here's what you do: |
1. Watch the VVIX Levels |
|
2. Use Volatility Products |
When the VVIX spikes, the VIX often follows. You can trade VIX options, VXX (a volatility ETF), or even SPX options to capitalize on the coming storm. Just make sure you've got a plan—this isn't the time to wing it.
|
3. Stay Nimble |
This isn't a market to go all-in on anything. Keep your trades small, your risk defined, and your eyes on the VVIX. If it keeps climbing, it's time to get defensive or start playing the downside.
|
4. Look for Correlation Breakdowns |

Why the VVIX is Better Than the VIX |
Let me tell you why I love the VVIX: It's harder to game. The VIX gets all the attention, but it's kind of a mess. It's slow, it's reactive, and frankly, it's misunderstood. |
The VVIX, though? |
That's where the smart money is looking. It measures the implied volatility of VIX options, which means it's telling you what the big boys are doing before the market reacts. |
Think of the VVIX as the whisper before the scream. By the time the VIX is screaming, it's too late to take advantage. But if you're tuned into the VVIX? You're already ahead of the game. |
|
|
|
The Bottom Line |
The VVIX is your early warning system. |
It's not just another random indicator—it's the pulse of the market's fear. When it spikes, the pros are buying protection, and you should be thinking about how to protect your portfolio—or profit from the chaos. |
Don't sleep on this… |
The VVIX is whispering. The question is: Are you listening? |
To your success,
Don Kaufman |
