- In you're trading or investing, you will often hear people say that a stock or the market is volatile. But have you ever wondered what volatility actually means. More importantly, volatility affects options prices. Having an understanding of what volatility is, how to calculate it and how to interpret it will go a long way in helping you trade better.
When talking about volatility, you'll hear about India VIX or the volatility index. In this video, Karthik explains all these aspects.
We'd also recommend checking out the Varsity chapters on volatility: zerodha.com/va...
As you learn all these aspects about trading, you can put your stock market knowledge to the test, taking the Varsity Certification exam: zerodha.com/va...

Sir, you have changed my life. I have not met you but you are my best teacher
for me too, I had studied varsity and got the right path to approach the market, thanks
You are such an awesome teacher. By luck i reached to this video after binging on more than 50 chapters in varsity in the past 3-4 days :) thanks a ton! Sir! God bless You!
To be kinda blunt, I'm giving up on investing in stocks..... I put between 4000 to 5000 a month and it's nothing but down down down..... Sooooo frustrating, and I only invest in boring big companies
A properly diversified portfolio and a regular rebalancing strategy can help put you at ease..
Keep it simple, buy things you understand, take some risk but don't try to shoot the lights out. I put in 75k into Index funds, ETFs, and semiconductor stocks in 2022, I'm up ~$640K. Having a diversified portfolio is Key!
I lost a lot chasing individual stocks and I feel pretty stupid for not understanding how investing works. I have a double major in economics but I’ve been trying to make sense of the market. Well done on profits!
I hope that's not the case you should consider cost averaging into index funds for the long term at best if you're struggling with personal investing or sometimes it's even better to just hire a fund manager. Their is no shame over 90% of people will underperform the index over the longer term the S&P500 over a 20 year period has never lost a gain. Consistency and the right guidance is better then following these TH-cam videos
Hi, I am trying to get an advisor but it's harder than you think. Anyone who is fee-based is hard to find and usually have a heavy workload. Would you be comfortable sharing a recommendation if it's not too much trouble
Carefully and perfectly chosen words .... I was anxious to hear the last 68% remark ... it has just sealed it .... 👌👌
Sir... After my grandfather... U are the best teacher I have come across... Your writing in training modules is so clear it feels like you are teaching right in front of me... Keep up the great work of educating people like us...
Just loved your video..... exactly what I was looking for 😊
Putting well-earned money into the stock market can't be over emphasised for first-time investors, unlike a bank where interest is sure thing! Well, basically times are uncertain, the market is out of control, and banks are gradually failing. I am working on a ballpark estimate of $2M for retirement, and I have a good 6-figure loaded up for this, could there be any opportunity for a boomer like me?
Personally, I would say have a mentor. Not sure where you will get an experienced one, but if your knowledge of the market is limited, it seems like a good bet.
Some individuals minimize the importance of counsel until they make regrettable mistakes. A few summers ago, following a protracted divorce, I needed a significant push to keep my firm afloat. I looked for licensed advisors and found someone with the highest qualifications. She has contributed to my reserve increasing from $175k to $450k despite inflation.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with *Julianne Iwersen-Niemann* for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
The stock market is more volatile than ever. recently went "all in" and bought up $150k worth of ETF's & individual stocks, my aim is to take advantage of this S&P 500 downtrend, what could be accurate predictions moving forward?
There are tools that let investors get into companies before they go public, offering the potential for significantly higher gains than those available after the IPO. That’s the approach I’m taking-personally, I prefer to avoid the equities and bond markets altogether.
Wow, that’s impressive! How did you manage to achieve this despite the market downturn? Could you share how I can get in touch with the seasoned pro you’re working with? I'd appreciate any info you’re willing to provide!
I have googled her and she has impressive credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
You have brought back the memories of statistics studied half heartedly during the college days! Good and informative video.👍
Super duper fantabulous revision on Volatility.

I have A Question Sir, The Hack You Talk About That Finding Forecast Volatility By Comparing Historical Volatility With Implied Volatility,So Do We Select The Implied Volatility There No.Of IV Mentioned, Is Select One IV Whose Strike I Want To Trade With That One Or Using SD To Find The IV By Adding All Of That IV, What Should I Have To Do? Plse Reply I'm Confused Here 👍🏻😅 And Historical Volatility I Have Got It Just IV Confusing Me What IV Value I Can Choose To Find FV
great explanation karthik. thank you
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for this wonderful content
Thank u..
An excellent video lesson, though very brief, should've been more elaborate with worked out examples, particularly when you jump from Stock Volatility to Options IV. Also, the figure 352 is a bit confusing since there are around 220 working days in NSE. Anyway, thanks a lot for this excellent lesson.
Thank you very much
Great learning as always
Could you do a video on how calculate volatility and what does it mean?
im just beginner and trying to understand option trading, i have been using your module 5 and it helped me a lot to understand basics.
I was reading volatility chapter (17.4 ) and im so confused about the range as on page no 144 (15.3) we calculated range by just volatility ,but in 17.4 (page no 163)we are calculating range by avg+/- volatility ,
My question is why the upper range is not 8337+(16.5%*8337) or lower range 8337-(16.5%*8337)
Hii sir i want information about"the impact of macro economic factors on stock market volatility" i am struck with calculation of volatility and economic factors and applying scenario analysis using financial modelling. can you please suggest me
❤good
Implied volatility and forcasted volatility is same or different?
Sir please tell me square root of time, how 252 comes explain.
India VIX is for the next 30 days or 1 year? I am confused. You have mentioned both in your video
30 days…1 year is slip of tongue !
Great Video sir, but What is IV Rank and IV percentile
Hi Rajaa, you can check this chapter on Varsity. Please do drop in your queries in the comments: zerodha.com/varsity/chapter/volatility-applications/
@@varsitybyzerodha thank for sharing sir
There's any video for technical analysis
We have a complete playlist: th-cam.com/video/yzRP-mA2eiE/w-d-xo.html
Background music should be lower for the video. Your voice is good enough to get focused on Topic.
Understood, Sangram. We'll work on it.
Is this produced in learn app background?
Excellent and simply explained. If possible, please also cover making use of IV Percentile/IV Rank in your next video
Noted, Dorairaj. Thanks for the feedback :)
Sir how did you consider the time value as 252 ?
252 is the typical number of trading days in a year.
Is there Any Volatility index for Forex?
Hey Subi, no, there isn't.
another thersitical explanation need.
Stock prices are non stationary therefore calculating volatility over complete data isn't relevant.
After watching this video, i have become more confused about volatility
