Summary

Today Lucas and Luna break down how day traders can use the VIX futures term structure—not just the spot VIX level—to time entries, gauge fear, and spot reversals. With the VIX at 15.93 and VVIX at 87.09, they walk through a concrete example: when contango flattens or inverts, it signals institutional hedging shifts that create tradable edges. No more guessing whether a VIX spike is a buy or sell; learn to read the curve like a pro. #DayTrading #VIX #Volatility #TermStructure #Contango #Backwardation #VIXFutures #VVIX #MarketTiming #TradingStrategy #InstitutionalFlow #Hedging #Finance #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #Podcast #Trading #VolatilitySmile Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
