Trading Update

Today, I executed my first Zero DTE trade!

I sold 3 SOFI 4/17 $10.5 put credit spreads for a royally grand premium of... $15.
The market wasn’t moving much, so there weren’t any solid setups for my usual trades. But SOFI was slightly up, and I figured it was the perfect chance to dip my toes into the Zero DTE pool.

So, I sold the puts and took the tiny premium on offer. The sweet part? The options expired worthless at the end of the day - just the way we like it.

Now that I’ve tried it once, I’ll be keeping an eye out for more Zero DTE opportunities.
