@updowninwaves Yes, the SHORTVOL index back to December 2005, since SVIX tracks that one
Same thing for SVXY, using SPVIXSTR back to launch of VIX futures
$SVXY is a 0.5x Short Vol ETF
$SVIX is a 1x Short Vol ETF
Even though SVXY is 1/2 leverage, it's actually outperformed SVIX since 2006
Why do you think that is?
This is what I mean when I talk about the "Volatility Regime Change" since Volpocalypse in 2018
Pre Volpocalypse Volatility: 38.70% average
Post Volpocalypse Volatility: 52.99% average
Our dear leaders PRETEND they are against inflation
Spoiler alert, they actually love inflation
* snippet from yesterday's livestream. Tune in next week to ask questions
@3ruletrading Timing of all asset classes using the VIX is worse. The VIX itself is one of the worst timing metrics out there, it's hyper specific to just S&P 500 Options, and those are representing hedging, speculation, long, short, and everything in between
The VIX by itself means nothing

Head to Head: SVXY vs SVIX
Is adding leverage really better for Short Volatility traders?
+ Open Q&A, ask me anything π

@V_Manente Mini Starlink and take the business on the road, it would totally work
Unfortunately, my wife is a bit of the princess 1st class type, so I suspect I'd be doing it all solo
I rarely share YouTube videos but in this case I just have to
Maybe it's because I'm always dreaming of doing ocean adventures, but this is probably top 5 YouTube videos I've ever watched
What do you think? Drop everything and go for it?

Volatility metrics like VX30:VIX roll yield work incredibly well for trading Volatility ETFs
They may or may not work with equities, you have to test them
@KyleWatson16398 You don't have enough money
You haven't thought this through financially, you're just reacting emotionally
Go ahead and try to ballpark calculate how much it would cost to finance everything yourself
Spoiler alert, it's A LOT more than your property taxes
