  • Could just leverage up on XDTE (SPY), QDTE (~SPY100), RDTE(RUS2000) and leave them to write the synthetic covered calls for you? They do weekly dividends and seem to be around $0.25 a week for a $40-50 share…

    Probably not quite the income you’re looking for but much lower risk of ruin since they’re actually hedged against downside risk

    Idk I think you might not be understanding the risk of your strategy, OTM 0DTE’s are inherently losing value every minute as they tick closer to expiry. Time decay is massively amplified since they’re at the end of their life. You can be right about direction and still lose your ass simply because it didn’t move fast enough.

    You enter into the contract from the start at a disadvantage because you pay for the IV, someone somewhere collects a premium to write you the contract. Like the house already has an edge right from the start, so not only do you need to overcome that but you also somehow have to time your entries and exits in a way that actually nets money before the contracts blow up in your face.

    Either way good luck, don’t put more than you can afford to lose on the line because you’re playing a dangerous game of leveraged hot potato
