  • 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...

    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 UA-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

    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.

    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)

    Stock prices are non stationary therefore calculating volatility over complete data isn't relevant.
