FINAL THOUGHTS
/VX futures are still in the 30s as volatility remains elevated. Gamma increased significantly yesterday increasing its pressure on volatility in /ES price action. DIX dropped slightly yesterday, illustrating a small decrease in institutional buying. We continue to recommend keeping smaller contract size and using tighter stops.
