How Day Traders Read the VIX Spike Into a Hawkish Fed

from The Day Trading Podcast with Fexingo: Active Trading, Charts, and Short-Term Market Strategy · host Fexingo

Lucas and Luna break down a specific day-trading setup that emerged this week as the VIX spiked 9% to 18.41 while the VVIX actually fell to 89. That divergence — volatility fear rising but options-market panic easing — creates a clean mean-reversion trade Lucas calls the VIX-VVIX wedge. They walk through the entry criteria, the risk management rule (stop if the VIX breaks 20), and why Friday's Kashkari rate-hike comment is a catalyst worth watching. No theory — just the three-number check they run before taking the trade. #VIX #VVIX #Volatility #DayTrading #Fed #Kashkari #RateHike #MeanReversion #Options #Futures #TradingStrategy #RiskManagement #Finance #Markets #TradingSetup #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ActiveTrading Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
