WHAT IS THE VIX?
─────────────────────────────────────────
The VIX (CBOE Volatility Index) measures the market's expectation of 30-day volatility derived from S&P 500 options pricing. It is widely referred to as the "fear gauge" — rising sharply during selloffs and declining during calm, trending markets. Monitoring VIX alongside price action helps traders assess whether volatility is expanding or contracting, which directly impacts options pricing, risk management, and trade sizing decisions.
