#implied-volatility

Live market "fear gauges" across asset classes as an API, served from Yahoo Finance. The VIX is the market's headline fear index — the S&P 500's 30-day implied volatility — and this returns it alongside the rest of the family: the 9-day VIX (short-term fear), the Nasdaq-100 (VXN) and Dow (VXD) volatility indices, crude-oil (OVX) and gold (GVZ) volatility, and the VVIX, the volatility of the VIX itself. Each comes with its current level, the day's change, and its day and 52-week range, and the board adds a plain-language fear regime from the VIX (complacent, normal, elevated, high or extreme). Get the whole board or one index. The implied-volatility and risk-sentiment layer for trading, macro-research and dashboard apps. Live, no key, no cache. Distinct from equity-index, crypto-volatility and FX-volatility APIs — this is the cross-asset implied-volatility (fear) suite.
