VIX soars after hitting levels unseen since November 2019

After returning to a level unseen since November 2019, the Volatility S&P 500 Index (VIX) soared nearly 30% within a matter of seven days. In the process, it broke above the resistance indicated by the lower bound of the fan pattern that we have been observing since late December 2023. On top of that, yesterday, VIX formed an opening gap, and today another one.
