  • Profiting From Market Volatility With VIX/ETF Pairs Trades [View article]
    I had researched the anamoly and am aware that on the upside, they'll continue to "seem" cheap, but they would have to trade at least at intrinsic value. For instance, if the VIX traded at 40 today, they'd have to fetch at least 5 per contract.

    As it turns out, UYG is up 6% pre market and that play is panning out, so perhaps the options go to zero and the long Financials play is the optimal part of the equation.

    Thanks for your comment; I agree that the VIX options are different than your typical stock option complex.
