How it works
quantedGammavolatility

SPX Volatility page

SPX implied volatility on a page of its own: a strip of headline numbers over the same five panels as quantedTicker's Volatility mode.

What it shows

A header with the date picker, a Premarket toggle and the live / replay status; a strip of tiles (SPX and its move, IV30, IV Rank, IV Percentile, Realized 21d, IV - Realized, Expected 30d move, 0DTE priced, Intraday realized); then IV Rank, Surface Summary, Term Structure, Smile and Strike Matrix. A scrubber steps the page through the session minute by minute.

What it is built from

Every listed SPX and SPXW expiry, minute by minute. Implied volatility is worked out from each option's mid price against its own expiry's forward and settlement time, so a put and a call at the same strike agree. Realized volatility comes from SPX's own price.

Reading

How to read it

  1. IV30 is the 30-day at-the-money IV at the minute on screen, with its change since the previous close.
  2. IV Rank and IV Percentile place IV30 in the history window picked on the IV Rank panel (1M, 3M or All).
  3. Realized 21d is how much SPX actually moved over the last 21 sessions, close to close, on the same annualized scale as IV. IV - Realized is the gap in vol points.
  4. 0DTE priced is the one-standard-deviation move today's 0DTE at-the-money options price from the minute on screen to the 16:00 close, in percent and dollars; its caption gives how much SPX typically moves over the same part of the day.
  5. Intraday realized is SPX's typical move inside the session (09:35 to 16:00), with overnight gaps left out.
  6. The panels below the strip read as in quantedTicker's Volatility mode. For SPX, the Surface Summary's normal change is measured on SPX's own sessions.
  7. A date that lists two contracts shows both, tagged AM (the monthly, settled at the 09:30 open) and PM (the weekly, settled at 16:00); the term structure uses the AM monthly.

Read it with

Good to know

  • The page opens in its own tab, so the dashboard you came from keeps its date, minute and layout.
  • Before 09:30 ET SPX's value is still the previous close, which is why Premarket shows the closing surface.
  • The 0DTE tiles read 'settled' after 16:00 and a dash on a day with no same-day expiry.
