Last week ended with two of the three major indexes hitting new highs. The S&P 500 rose 14.80 to close at 2399.92 – a new all-time high, The NASDAQ Composite gained nearly 1%, closing at an all-time high of, advancing 6100.76. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was the laggard. The DJIA advanced 0.3% to close just above 21,000. The small-cap dominated Russell 2000 continued to underperform when compared to larger cap indices.
Financial talking heads are using the VIX to fan the fires of concern about an impending market sell off. It seems every market pundit has a “fact” about the VIX or S&P 500 volatility which portends the risk of the end of the bull market. As of the close this past Thursday, the S&P 500 had gone 7 days without a move of 0.2% in either direction. According to Bespoke Investment, this was only the fifth time the SPX had ever gone as many days with so little movement. This concern was followed by a 0,4% gain on Friday. The VIX hit a post-Financial Crisis low of 9.90 on Monday, while again dipping below 10 on Friday.
The weakness in the VIX and the lack of movement in the major indices are not predictors of market direction. The greatest challenge for me as a trader is avoiding complacency. Trading requires patience and a sense of urgency. Trading has been described by long periods of boredom interrupted by moments of panic. The lethargy of a quiet market can rob a trader of the sense of urgency required to prepare for the reaction required for moments of panic. Hunter S. Thompson summed it up with““A man who procrastinates in his choosing will inevitably have his choice made for him by circumstance.”

Low implied volatility is a basic fact of current markets. Low statistical volatility (movement of the underlying) and low implied volatility (reflected in premium levels of options) are forcing options traders to reevaluate the strategies being used. The viability of any options strategy must be evaluated against change in time, movement in the price of the underlying and changes in implied volatility of the options. Low levels in volatility - statistical and implied - force the options trader to find strategies fitting their risk/reward comfort zone.
