OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Updated VIX/VXV Ratio (TitsNany)
This script plots the VXV/VIX ratio, which compares medium-term volatility (90-day fear) to short-term volatility (30-day fear). When the ratio rises above key levels like 1.16 or 1.24, it signals that traders expect future stress, often preceding market pullbacks. When the ratio falls toward or below 1.0, short-term fear is spiking, which typically occurs during active selloffs or volatility events. In short, elevated readings warn of potential market drops ahead, while sharp declines in the ratio reflect panic already hitting the market.
