Nifty is flat, But VIX is up by 10% - What's up with markets?

Nifty & Bank Nifty discussions
1

Looks like this is a rare time when VIX is indicating actual levels considering the volatility, average day range and fear in the market.

As they say - Tops are made in violence and bottoms in silence. I think there is quite a good chance there we haven’t made bottom yet. But, for me, 16500-15500 is a zone to accumulate…We live in crazy times so a cushion of 1000 points needs to be kept.

Today, Indices are flat but VIX spiked up by almost 10% to 25.62

This move doesn’t necessarily mean anything particular and is open to different interpretations. What do you think about how the markets are shaping up for this week and june in particular?

Yes. Premiums got really high earlier today, and I sold 15400 Jun 2nd puts for a fat premium. Mind you I turned into an avid option buyer beginning of this year.

some biggies might be positioning themselves for a big move on the downside but will the market oblige ?

I feel that nifty will consolidate for few more days. The spike in IV and premiums will melt away.

Very bad results by many companies yet markets are hardly 1-1.5% down in last 3-4 days. Market is not willing to head lower.
