/NQ looks like it's setting up for a nice upset.
While it is the one year anniversary, I don't think this causes investors to sell for two reasons. One, most investors did not buy on the first day/week/month during COVID, most waited weeks or months or waited over time. Also moving from ST to LT cap gains makes selling more tax efficient, if investors believe there is more upside momentum, investors won't sell future profits due to their potential cap gains lowering.

The VIX has surpassed 45 twice in the last 30 years - 08 and Covid. Highly unlikely it moves that high overnight, it is usually over days/weeks. You can short/buy puts in the high 20s and 30s then usually walk away with a profit once mean reversion happens.

Just my .02
