You definitely get more pop with long premium trades (buying
puts or calls) but I'm not smart enough to get both the direction

supporting. Tempting to go out to Tuesday expiry and sell the 4100
strike for $500 (61.8 fib is 4093).

SPX bear call spread - I just pulled the trigger and sold a handful of 4045 / 4060 0DTE calls.
Posting my trade - so now I'll probably get challenged....which is fine. I'm in small with room to defend (roll).
