Entry dayEntry sampleSort strategies

Today is T−6 (Oct 30, 2026). Every entry day uses its own historical contracts and quotes. Latest quote date: Oct 29, 2026 (T−7).

Mar 4, 2010 – Aug 6, 2026 · percentage return on modeled maximum loss · dollar P&L per one-lot structure. Samples can differ between strategies.

Previous-session examples are dated references while the latest completed-session update is pending. Changing the historical entry day does not change the displayed contracts. Exit controls also check whether the legs can support that exit.

Historical win rate counts after-cost P&L above zero. Break-even tests stay in the denominator; missing tests do not. It is a historical frequency, not a forecast probability.

Execution-cost scenario

Strategy to reviewAdditional execution cost ($ / one-lot round trip)

T−6 entry · before earnings / earlier expiration. The additional cost is a scenario, not an observed fill. Current quotes, liquidity and per-contract risk must be checked before sizing; historical averages do not create option legs or orders.

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.

Advanced exit rule

62 recorded missing-test entries for the selected day and exit; absence of a recorded gap does not prove that a test was performed.
