Second day of trading UVXY after the reverse split and it's already down to the 35 handle. Sheesh!

VXX has reverse split to 40 range and now continues on its "predictably crappy" descent.

In a low vol environment, the simple way to trade this is using long put spreads.

Here we are, 20 days out and almost 3 points over spot. We should be at 1.5 or less. So there is a huge premium in M1 still.

8 was quite shocking when it happened a couple years back, and it could happen again with the CB's actions, etc. VIX spends much more time at 12, though.

VIX Nov 40 60 call spread seems to be one popular long vol play going into the election. Somebody bought a ton of them last week at 2.38. Now it's going for 2.25. BTFD.
