Discover optimal 0DTE trading hours, 15-year market pattern findings, and critical housing market predictions backed by data-driven research.
In this week’s Market Measures, Tom Sosnoff and Tony Battista analyze zero-days-to-expiration (0DTE) options trading over 20 months. They found trades placed early in the day (from the market open to the first two hours) were significantly more profitable than later entries, while maintaining similar win rates (88%-89%). Both 20 and 30 delta strangles performed best when entered early. The standard deviation of returns increases dramatically in final trading hours.
Tom Sosnoff and Tony Battista focus on a 15 years of market data and find distinct intraday patterns: Markets tend to be weaker in the morning (around 10:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time) and stronger in the afternoon, with the VIX showing the opposite pattern. This is specifically a bull market phenomenon. The best months for buying morning dips are February, May, June and November. You don’t want to miss this study.
