Description
In this episode of The Day Trading Podcast, Lucas and Luna drill into the VIX at 17.05 — a level that's been a battleground for momentum traders in July 2026. With S&P 500 sliding below 7,525 and volatility creeping higher, they dissect what the VIX 17 level signals for regime shifts, how it interacts with the VVIX at 96.34, and why the old VIX 15 support has broken. Using the latest data and Jamie Dimon's warning on risk, they walk through specific entry and exit frameworks for day traders navigating this choppy market. No fluff — just actionable chart-based strategy.
