Description
This script attempts to automatically identify the correct $VIX index for the underlying symbol. If one is not found, it will default to $VIX. It also has a mode for comparing the $VIX against the CBOE 3-Month Volatility Index as a ratio. In ratio mode, you can identify periods when trader sentiment has turned extremely bearish. This can be identified when the ratio is above 1, which happens when the $VIX futures contracts enter a period of backwardation. More importantly, after a strong sell-off in the market, a VIX ratio cross back below 1 can indicate a bullish reversal.
