@Ksidiii No crowding in $UVXY, quite the opposite Shareholder equity 12/20 - $1,356mm 12/21 - $917mm 12/22 - $734mm 12/23 - $387mm today it stands under $250mm So where's there crowd cuz I don't see them in the ETPs 🤷♂️
@Ksidiii Zero and Hoz are the biggest put sellers on here 😂
@Ksidiii The sign was the VVIX SVXY and the OIS market giving signs 🪧 on the risk going into the weekend.
@Ksidiii Short vol trade has probably been “crowded” for years but still pays well lol
@Ksidiii You can tell it’s a source of hidden alpha because TurboTax (deep state) makes it hard to claim taxes on.
@Ksidiii It's a trade that works for 5 or 6 years, paying hedgies handsomely, then blows up. Rinse and repeat.
@Ksidiii Kris - saying the short vol trade is crowded is like saying the long equity trade is crowded - it translates to nothing meaningful or actionable.
