UPDATE: In May 2019, Barclays renamed the new VXXB product back to the original VXX ticker symbol.
VXX (previously VXXB) is a long volatility exchange-traded note (ETN) that is designed to give traders exposure to changes in the VIX Index. However, VXX does not track the VIX Index directly, and the VIX Index is not directly investable.
VXX is essentially the same product as the old VXX, but under a different temporary ticker symbol (VXXB) since the original VXX matured/expired on January 30th, 2019.
In this video, you’ll learn exactly how VXX works through multiple explanations and real-world examples.
More specifically, we’ll explore:
1) How VXX is structured and what it tracks on a daily basis.
2) Real examples of VXX price performance relative to the VIX Index and futures.
3) How VXX is expected to perform in periods of VIX futures contango and backwardation (with real-world examples).
