T−17 entry · compare strategies
Compare returns and downside before choosing a strategy. Returns include stored modeled fill costs and commissions.
Before earnings / earlier expiration: the stored exit can be earlier when the contracts expire.
Today is T−17 (Oct 31, 2026). Every entry day uses its own historical contracts and quotes. Latest quote date: Oct 30, 2026 (T−18).
No stored results for this entry, exit rule and entry sample. Choose another entry day or watch this ticker for updated coverage.
Jan 28, 2014 – Aug 18, 2026 · percentage return on modeled maximum loss · dollar P&L per one-lot structure. Samples can differ between strategies.
Current trade examples use today's verified event and latest completed-session quotes. Changing the historical entry day does not change the displayed contracts. Exit controls also check whether the legs can support that exit.

Return basis, costs and coverage
Long-option returns use premium at risk; defined-risk structures use modeled maximum loss. Naked shorts have no maximum-loss ROI; broker margin, early assignment and resulting stock exposure are not modeled. These percentages are not account returns or annualized returns.
Stored fills and commissions are modeled. DITM uses the existing near-term call nearest +0.90 delta, minimum +0.80 delta, earliest listed expiry after the earnings reaction and no more than 60 entry DTE.
Statistics use exact aggregates across all stored cohort outcomes; sampled trade details never supply these totals. Includes tests with failed or unknown entry-filter status; this does not establish live entry eligibility.
Recorded processing is complete for this ticker's requested scope. This does not mean every quote is available or the full stock universe is complete.
11 recorded missing-test entries for the selected day and exit; absence of a recorded gap does not prove that a test was performed.
