Popis: We explain the evolution of the volatility market and present the infamous day of ‘Volmageddon’ as an insightful case study. Our survey focuses on the pricing and trading of volatility-linked assets, highlighting the impact of mechanical hedging in markets for futures and higher-order derivatives. We supplement the vast statistical analysis of volatility derivatives with a financial economist’s perspective.
