## Resource

On this episode of The Day Trading Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore the VVIX skew signal—a powerful but overlooked volatility indicator for short-term traders. With the VIX crashing 26.9% over the past five days to 16.23 and the VVIX tumbling 19.6% to 87, the hosts dissect what the gap between implied volatility of volatility and actual VIX movements tells us. Lucas explains why a VVIX/VIX ratio below 5.5 often precedes sharp reversals, using historical examples from 2024 and 2025. Luna questions whether the current low-VIX environment is a trap for bearish day traders. They walk through a specific trade setup on SPY options, including entry triggers, stop levels, and profit targets. The episode also covers how to read VVIX term structure for intraday signals. If you're a day trader looking to add a volatility edge, this episode delivers a concrete, actionable framework. #VVIX #VIX #Volatility #DayTrading #SPY #OptionsTrading #SkewSignal #ImpliedVolatility #VVIXSkew #LucasAndLuna #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Finance #TradingStrategy #MarketStructure #ShortTermTrading #VolatilityArb #GammaFlip Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
