[ded] You could call this a risk on trade. The option liquidity provider is taking down the IV very fast today, signaling they don’t expect much to happen this week on the upside for volatility and VXX in particular. All signs are pointing to a lower VXX number next week. - AG  [logo, pit profits] Want to find YOUR winning fit?
