Trade Volatility Index - VIX CFD

The CBOE Volatility (VIX) Index works as a popular means to find out the expected market’s volatility based on the options of the S&P 500 index. The VIX stock market index is published and calculated by the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE). Colloquially the index is often called the ‘fear index’. Founded in 1986 the current VIX index forms the expectation of stock market volatility for the near future. It quotes the calculated annualised change in the S&P 500 index for the following 30 days.

Capital offers an undated VIX product comprising the two nearest CBOE futures. Our price will commence using the first future only and will move throughout the period towards the second future so that when first expires it will no longer impact the undated price.
