SPX Weekly Options Trading Research for 7DTE Credit Spreads

SPX Weekly Options with 7 Days to Expiration

‍

In this SPX options trading research video, we'll explore trading SPX put credit spreads with 7DTE(days to expiration) using the Weekly Triumph Rate from Alpha Crunching as a guide to know what the best days of week are to put on a trade.

The Weekly Triumph Rate (WTR) is updated each week before the trading week begins and shows the rate at which the market has closed higher, 7 days later, over the past couple of months.

The combination of the WTR along with strike selection give this mechanical strategy an edge allowing you to trade in a systematic data-driven way.

For this strategy, we're looking for WTR values of 50% or greater before the trading week begins to plan these PDT friendly SPX options trades which is great for those who can't or don't want to watch the market all day.
