VixFix Indicator for cTrader
Catch Market Panic Before It Hits the News.
This VixFix indicator is a smart adaptation of Larry Williams’ classic “VIX Fix” concept—designed to help traders detect short-term fear and volatility spikes, especially useful in identifying potential market bottoms.
How It Works
- Calculates a pseudo-volatility spike by comparing the recent low to the highest high over a configurable period (default: 12).
- Applies a moving average and standard deviation envelope to separate signal spikes from normal noise.
- Plots red histogram bars when volatility exceeds the threshold—your cue to start paying attention.
Features
- Clean histogram display (non-overlay)
- Two-color plot:
- Red = Signal (volatility spike above threshold)
- Gray = Normal activity
- Adjustable periods and sensitivity factor
- Zero indicator lag—uses raw price action only, no repainting
Use Cases
- Spot potential reversals in downtrends
- Time mean-reversion trades
- Confirm oversold conditions without relying on RSI or other laggy tools
