AMP Futures is excited to announce CBOE Volatility Index® (VX) Futures "VIX" is now available for Live Trading The CBOE Volatility Index - more commonly referred to as "VIX" - is an up-to-the-minute market estimate of expected volatility that is calculated by using real-time prices of options on the S&P 500® Index listed on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (Symbol: SPX). The VIX Index is calculated using SPX quotes generated during regular trading hours for SPX options. The VIX Index uses SPX options with more than 23 days and less than 37 days to expiration and then weights them to yield a constant, 30-day measure of the expected volatility of the S&P 500 Index. This is for all trading platforms connected to AMP/CQG datafeed, such as AMP's FREE version of MultiCharts, TradingView, Sierra Chart, MarketDelta Cloud, and CQGM.

Hi, Do you also offer trading in the weekly VIX futures? Also do you offer trading in the VIX futures time spreads? They are quoted and traded in as a spread as opposed to simply buying one offer and selling the other months bid. Thanks
The Volume on VIXX Weekly futures is very low currently, we will be able to enable these on a special case basis. The Futures Time spreads will be available as long they are standard months, MARCH, JUNE, SEPTEMBER and DECEMBER. Email trading@ampfutures.com - your account number and request to have these enabled.
There was one previously - but CFE/CBOE has delisted the Mini VIX (VM) futures contract. The last expiration was January 2014.
