How it works

Implied volatility is the annualised volatility the options market prices in. Scaling it to the time left gives a one standard deviation range around spot.

Expected move = Spot x IV x square root of (days / 365). It is what options imply, not a forecast of direction. Real moves are often fatter-tailed than this model assumes.
