The market's fear index is at 30, but volatility is sitting at a quiet 16.

People are panicking over a market that is actually just moving sideways.

When the market chops sideways, traders lose patience and mistake boredom for a crash. The data shows there is no real panic selling happening right now—just a lot of waiting. Sometimes the hardest trading strategy is doing nothing.
