Hello fellow traders,
One fascinating aspect of 0 DTE options is the daily opportunity they provide for initiating new trades. Unlike other systems or strategies, which often rely on specific days within weeks or months to make strategic decisions, 0 DTE trading offers a more immediate approach. While this approach may suit those managing large portfolios where economies of scale come into play, traders with more modest accounts require better opportunities.
That’s why I have truly come to appreciate the viability of 0 DTE trading. Currently, it’s primarily with SPX (S&P 500), but hopefully, in the future, we will see more stocks with similar liquidity become available, allowing for greater diversification.
However, 0 DTE trading has its drawbacks in that it only allows for one-day consideration of market movement and news. This is why working with Terry and developing our system, which sifts through historical SPX data to generate statistical information for informed trading decisions, has been invaluable.
Mathematics is like the invisible force that permeates every aspect of our lives, even when we don’t consciously notice it. It influences our daily activities, from counting money to planning our day or measuring ingredients for a recipe. Yet, it goes beyond mere numbers; it’s also behind the functionality of our phones, the structural integrity of buildings, and even the behavior of the weather. It’s the secret ingredient in everything we do, quietly facilitating processes in the background, whether we realize it or not.
Therefore, by analyzing historical data and identifying high-probability trading opportunities, we can make informed decisions about which trades to execute each day. The best part is that we can do this practically as soon as the market opens. This allows me to enter trades swiftly and comfortably go about my day without being tethered to the screen, constantly monitoring every market tick. While I do glance occasionally, perhaps every hour or two, I can sleep peacefully knowing that the odds are in my favor, especially when I’m in a time zone that would otherwise have me awake through the night until the early hours to monitor market closure.
So, I will continue to engage in 0 DTE trading on the SPX for as long as it remains feasible. I take comfort in knowing that I am making the most informed decisions possible about my daily trades.
