Topics this week include: WTI/Crude Gold Equities Ags/Soybeand Rates Crypto Futures Options Feedback: Flash Poll! Let's stick with our Volatility theme to round out the week. Quite simply - which product do you think has the highest 30-day implied Volatility? No cheating (or checking with your broker)! What does your gut tell you? VIX? Bitcoin? TSLA? RUSSELL2000? RUT? IWM? Tesla, TSLA VIX Bitcoin Russell 2000: Emini, RUT Listener questions and comments: Question from Ned Brown -You had a guest on a few weeks back and he mentioned what he thought Bitcoin volatility would be on the options.

Has anyone asked the SEC about them? Question from BB88 -How do I do what Nick said last week to see the options activity on that day's expiring future?
