"All That's Left Is To Fade Away & Die" - Japanese Bond Volatility Crashes To Record Low

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018...e-japanese-bond-volatility-crashes-record-low

 

I see 350K on NQ, 1.2 mil on ES. This seems the normal level pre-2018 correction.

 

The VIX is back below 20.

Generally speaking:

10 to 20 means low volatility.
20 to 30 medium volatility
30+ high volatility.

 

yup southall... very correct...
