Compare returns and downside before choosing a strategy. Returns include stored modeled fill costs and commissions.

Each column is a separate historical trade. Missing quotes, weekends and holidays are not zero returns. Compare event counts before interpreting differences between entry days.

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.

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