Looking at selling next week's $18 calls on the VIX.

VVIX didnt even move even with the down day.

Banks still controlling the narrative.

Maybe you overpaid.

Have to know the stock and contract you bought to get a better idea.

I bought 6 VZ (Verizon) call options for 5.50 per contract that expire on the 2nd week of August with a strike price of 51. When I bought the calls, VZ was trading at 55.91 and by the close of the market it was at 56.26.

Shouldn't I be at a profit of $210? BTW this is my first time buying deep in the money.

Is there any volatility in VZ? The implied volatility is probably very low.

Nope, no volatility. So it has to have high volatility for me to see profit?
