Oh fuck, 50 cent is back? Last time I heard about 50 cent scooping up a ton of VIX calls, the corona crash happened a few months later.img

He also had a similar position in november and got destroyed. With the 10% spike from today, he might already have sold and made a good chunk

I see 100,098 for strike 90 and 30,569 for strike 50. That's a lot of volume.

As far as hedging and betting goes, I think it is always wise to hedge your bets and make sure you have a backup plan.

How can I buy puts on the VIX? I have TD ameritrade and can’t find the ticker

Ticker is VIX. Pull up the chart, go to the “Trade” tab and it should drop you right into the options chain.

It took me right to the VIX when I typed it in. Not sure why it’s doing something different for you.

type in $ VIX not Vix as it is an index itself and not an etn.

I’ve been using the desktop version and just use the app for checking things when I’m in plays.

Definitely not, just curious for when it does hits its low areas I’d be interested in calls for a scalp.

Can this be done on Robinhood? If so, how? Asking for a friend.

I think the VIX has been heavily shorted by the computers all year to keep the momentum going, to keep trying to get high prices in the main indexes.
