AlphaGBM VIX Status
The single VIX number, translated into the 5-tier framework that options sellers actually use to size up and down. Use this as the market-wide backdrop before any per-ticker analysis.
What This Skill Does
Maps the raw VIX value to one of five strategy zones:
| Tier | VIX Range | Color | Seller's Move |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calm | < 15 | 🔵 blue | Premiums thin; buy protection cheap (Long Put) |
| Normal | 15–20 | 🟢 green | Daily Sell Put / BPS routine |
| Seller Sweet Spot | 20–25 | 🟡 yellow | BPS premiums juicy — actively open positions |
| Caution | 25–35 | 🟠 orange | Can trade but halve size; VIX-explosion risk |
| Extreme Fear | ≥ 35 | 🔴 red | Retail sellers most likely to get buried — only buy the dip in stock |
Also returns:
mean_1y— 1-year mean VIX for comparisonpercentile_1y— where today's VIX sits in last year's distributiondistribution_1y_pct— % of last year spent in each of the 5 tiers
