- VIX Level and Percentile:
-
Current VIX: 17.6 (39th percentile over the past 200 days).

-
60% chance of profit.
-
Average days to profit: 2.33 days.
-
Average max profit: 10.43%.
- UVXY Performance:
-
Current UVXY price: 19.58 (0th percentile over the past 90 days, meaning it's at its lowest level in this period).
-
5D % Change: -13.12% (sharp decline).
-
RSI (14): 43.02 (neutral, not oversold).
-
Volume Spike Ratio: 0.5 (low volume, no significant buying interest).
- VIX vs. VIX9D:
- VIX9D (15.77) < VIX (17.6), suggesting near-term volatility expectations are lower than current volatility. This is typically not a bullish signal for UVXY.

5D Z-score: -1.59 (VIX is significantly below its 5-day mean).
-
20D Z-score: -0.80 (VIX is slightly below its 20-day mean).

Historical Performance Insights
-
In the 30-39.9 VIX percentile range, UVXY has a 60% chance of generating a profit, with an average max profit of 10.43%.
-
In the 16.01-18 VIX value range, UVXY has a 59.26% chance of profit, with an average max profit of 9.72%.
-
The current VIX (17.6) falls into both these ranges, indicating a moderate but not high-probability opportunity.
Recommendation
Given the current conditions:
-
Moderate Opportunity: The VIX is in a range where UVXY has historically had a ~60% chance of profit, but the average max profit is modest (~10%). The UVXY is also at its lowest level in 90 days, which could indicate a potential bounce, but the lack of volume spike and neutral RSI suggest no immediate catalyst.
-
Allocation: Given the moderate probability and modest upside, a small allocation is advisable.
-
Suggested allocation: 5-10% of total capital.
-
Entry price: Current price (~19.58) or slightly lower (e.g., 19.30-19.50) to improve risk/reward.
- Profit Target:
-
Given historical avg max profit of ~10%, aim for 10% gain (exit at ~21.54).
-
Alternatively, consider scaling out in portions (e.g., 50% at 7%, 50% at 12%).
- Stop Loss:
- Set at 5% below entry (exit at ~18.60) to limit downside.
Additional Notes
-
Caution: The VIX9D being below VIX suggests near-term volatility may not spike soon, reducing the urgency to buy UVXY.
-
Alternative Strategy: If you're bullish on volatility, consider waiting for a lower UVXY price (e.g., below 19) or a higher VIX percentile (e.g., above 40%) to improve odds.
Final Advice
-
Action: Buy UVXY with 5-10% of capital at 19.30-19.58.
-
Target: 21.54 (10% profit).
-
Stop Loss: 18.60 (5% loss).
-
Hold Time: Expect to hold for 2-3 days based on historical avg days to profit. Monitor VIX and UVXY closely for early exits if conditions deteriorate.
