in on VIX July calls

Welcome to the club. Already ITM
Can you help me understand why there almost no disparity between VIX calls in July pricing vs. VIX November pricing same strikes?
If you are looking at the actual VIX ($VIX.X on TD Ameritrade), then the reason is b/c options on the VIX are only actionable at settlement; there is no underlying asset with which you can "put" to someone or "call" away from someone.

Volatility in the broader market is inherently short lived (or, perceived to be so), thus, even if you anticipate a spike in volatility in the next month or two, buying options on the actual VIX four months out is not a smart idea b/c it is unlikely to react accordingly bc the market will price in that the volatility is likely to have ended by the time the four month option reaches settlement.


ETF's that attempt to track volatility, on the other hand, do have shares that can be "put" to or "called" away from someone. These ETF's typically trade in VIX futures and act similar to commodity tracking ETFs. Thus, for these ETFs, there should always be a time premium for a longer dated option since it is possible to initiate actionable transactions with shares of the underlying up to and including expiration.

Outside of the two small fear blips in the middle, the VOLSPD has been on an upward rise all morning. That indicates the volume into the S&P advancers is outweighing the volume into the decliners. Buyers are still present this morning.

Ah, thank you.

Also explains why I couldn't make hay with selling poor man's covered calls on those options. Thought I'd found the gold mine that I never knew existed. Until TOS kept bonking my sends.

300 is clear line in the sand. Break that and it's timbaaaaa. Needs to get back and stay over 305 at least, ideally 308+ for any chance of reversal. 300-305 is no man's land and becomes bearish flagging on intraday charts.

Yea let's see what happens... I'm neutral now. 21 day EMA is just a hair under 305. One method I like to follow is a close under 8 & 21 EMA means directionally bearish and close over both is directionally bullish. Ride the momentum until it stops. Of course it is common to close right on them though.

Exited the VXX calls. Kept waiting for it to start going back down, but it doesn't seem to want to turn around. 50% ain't bad though.

That's messed up. I'm pretty sure if my memory serves right, we have a handful of folks on this board using IB. And they are not measly ol me and my play account, if you catch my drift. Wonder if our guys got similar messages.

3000 ROKU buys on the 110C & the 110P, that's a hell of a straddle. (sorry, july 17)

Not going to call it a perfect week, because I left a lot on the table, but every sell was green, which I don't think I've ever done before. Just had to share.
