Glassnode describes “Implied Volatility” as the market’s forecast of price fluctuations. When we know the cost of an option, we can calculate the anticipated volatility of the asset it represents. To put it formally, implied volatility (IV) represents the expected range of an asset’s price movement over a year, within one standard deviation.
By tracking At-The-Money (ATM) Implied Volatility (IV) over a period of time, we can gain a standardized perspective on the expected volatility, which typically varies with actual volatility and the mood of the market. This measurement displays the ATM IV for options contracts due to expire one month from the current date.
