Election Year Seasonality Calls for a Long VIX Position

Alpha isn’t just found—it’s created through market interaction. At Punk Rock Traders, we’re leveraging both variance premium and seasonality by balancing short VIX positions with a strategic long position. With the VIX poised for a seasonal spike in October and election volatility in play, we’re recommending the October 16th $16 VIX call option to hedge against previous short positions. Our recent VIX trades have been successful, and adding this long position aims to capitalize on anticipated volatility spikes and subsequent crushes.
