    Super interesting video! Thank you! We trade 0 DTE only long (naked) and only on the SPX. Advantages: 1) The high gamma works 100% for us instead of against us 2) Always limited and precisely defined risk (= purchase price of the option) 3) No exercise issues even until market close (cash settlement with SPX) 4) Unbeatably high liquidity with SPX. I'm looking forward to the continuation of the 0DTE video series!

    Good info to determine trending day vs non-trending.
    Theta as a percentage of the trade is high on a 0DTE option. Gamma distorts the premium like a lens. Say you go from 400 to 404 on a move (1%), buying 402C would maximize gamma capture. You might want to make sure this series covers market maker move too.

    Even better for 'high conviction' (if IV skew is in your favor) sell the call spread to buy the put spread... force the market maker to short the stock to balance his delta. Now, you've neutralized your risk on vega and theta, and doubled your gamma and delta risk. Biggest downside is the commissions/fees on a 40-lot with 4 contracts per lot... that's 160 contracts. The fees/commissions will kill you! You've got to have a really great IV spread to make that work and need more than one standard deviation to overcome the trade expense. Thanks so much for the class. My biggest problem with 0-DTEs is market makers that will rob you on the spread. You've really got to work that spread for a good fill, and have a super liquid product to trade that size. Thanks again.

    Setup on the SPY seemed pretty solid today for the more aggressive straight PUT options vs the debit spread. VOLD opened around -4 and by 10am was at -9. ADL hovered around -2000 for MOST of the day. Cumulative TICK started at almost -1500, though it went up throughout the day. I got into about one hundred -30 Delta PUT Options today around 10:30am EST. What kind of exit strategy makes sense with this type of play? I had set a 30% limit, but removed it because it looked like we would continue moving down and I didn't want to take a loss on my original position when it comes back down and even doubled down on MORE PUTS as the price was testing the 50 EMA. Was today just a strange day or did I mess something up following the strategy? These ~$6k hits are no fun :\

      I left a comment on the previous vid in this series explaning how I put this system to the test several months ago and I found in my opinion, minimal predictive ability of using these indicators because there were many times where you'd see evidence of a trend day and it never happened, or vice versa. I pointed this out in a fair, balanced, non-inflammatory way with examples, and they deleted my comment. What does that tell you? They actually inadvertantly helped me by doing that.

    Great video BUT!!! They don't say that options allow traders to make money fast ONLY when they’re right, but if the market reverses, you can walk away and owe nothing!!! In this and other videos these gentlemen fail to mention that in order to profit from buying/selling an option you must be right in THREE ways: 1. You must choose the right stock; 2. Predict the extent of
    its MOVE, and 3. Forecast HOW FAST it’ll get there. If you’re wrong on even one of these three choices, you’ll lose money.
    But when you trade even with small capital, you only have to be right in one way - predictions of stock's movie. that's all and even if you fail you risk just small amount of the traded capital compared to the total amount in case of option trading...
