Macro Monday

The VIX Morning Raider

🌋 Swing Trader 📅 0 years old (Born 2026)

"VIX above 18.46 means the options market is pricing fear. Monday morning means that fear has had all weekend to ferment. The combo creates textbook mean-reversion setups."

Storm Monday's more volatile sibling. Trades the same Monday morning window but reads VIX instead of credit spreads. More trades, slightly lower conviction, still devastating edge.
