What does IV rank measure?
IV rank places current implied volatility within its historical range. A high reading is relative to that ticker, not an automatic sell signal.

AMD implied volatility, skew, and expected move
Volatility describes the movement the market is pricing, not the direction AMD will travel. TickerBuff compares implied and realized volatility across expirations so expensive, discounted, and event-driven regimes are easier to identify.

Context before conclusions
The workflow keeps observed data separate from interpretation, shows conflicting evidence, and treats every setup as invalidatable.
- Compare implied volatility with recent realized movement.
- Inspect term structure around known catalysts.
- Use skew and expected move as context rather than forecasts.
Common questions
Volatility intelligence FAQ
Is the expected move a price target?
No. It is a volatility-derived range for a defined expiration and does not predict direction or guarantee containment.
