    Exactly! Everything's just faster, that's all. OTM flys, calendars, single options work roughly the same. I can see how it's easy to get burnt with credit spreads as the RR is tricky

  7. It's dangerous for the hedge funds mostly. Easy if you trade ES futures. Wait on your false breakout right before open. Load futures. Market open, load your 0dte SPX or SPY. Balling.
