In this short clip from Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour recorded on April 23, 2025, Samantha LaDuc, Brent Kochuba, and Hans Albrecht discuss how recent market moves are being driven more by reflexive flows and volatility dynamics than true changes in risk expectations.
They highlight that despite rallies triggered by geopolitical headlines and policy signals, implied volatility remains stubbornly high, suggesting that markets are still fragile and illiquid.
Brent Kochuba from SpotGamma explains that traditional support/resistance based on dealer gamma is breaking down, and traders must now rely more heavily on volatility signals to understand what’s real.
Samantha adds that capital flows and investor confidence remain weak, making sustained rallies difficult without a major shift in liquidity or macro policy.
