METF 0DTE

Price OSP playbook — what to look for & live signal reasoned from code

Profit mechanism. Trend-following 0DTE SPX credit spreads: 20/40 EMA on the 1-min chart picks the side (up → put spread, down → call spread), 25-35 pts wide for $1.25-2.50 credit, six fixed entries 12:30-14:45 ET, stop = 1× credit, else hold to expiry.

Look for:

Clear 1-min EMA separation (the scanner shows the live trend read)
Credit inside the $1.25-2.50 band
Entry times are FIXED — this is a clock-driven campaign

Edge / reality: EXTERNAL claim, NOT verified here: CAR 50%, maxDD 8.5%, Calmar 5.98 over one year — self-reported, no methodology. Paper-first.

Live-signal caveat: Trend read uses SPY 1-min bars as SPX proxy; off-hours the scanner emits both sides marked trend=unavailable.
