Thanks for posting this! I typically use a VIX/VXV ratio (same but inversed) for my XIV and ZIV investing, and came across your oscillator. I'll either start thinking inversely, or adapt to this method and adopt it. :)

@jjfrost I just realized you built in the ability to customize the ratio tickers -- brilliant. Thank you for creating this.

Of course. That was a sloppy formulation on my part. What I meant to say is that the ratio doesn't spend much time above or below these thresholds, so it's not clear to me how one would use them as signals.

In your chart, the VXV/VIX ratio is never <1 or > 1.3. If this is, indeed, the case, can you help me figure out how to use this ratio?

@Algyros, yes, it's >1.3 on 8/31 and 9/1 and reaches 0.97 on 4/12. There's also an 20 day EMA (orange) that does not reach the high/low lines.
