Practical write-ups on ALRE™ journaling, book load, dynamic stops, and intraday 0 DTE rules — linked to the journals you use every session.
A roll is not a new trade and not the same trade. Log rolls wrong and your win rate lies about what the ladder actually pays.
Logging bear calls like bull puts blends directional stats. Here is what to record differently so your SPX ladder review stays honest.
Selling a 0DTE vertical into an unresolved opening range is a coin flip with tail risk. The opening range gate forces a wait or skip.
Not trading is a position. Volatility regime tells you when 0DTE credit is bait, not edge.
0DTE mistakes happen before the fill. Run this checklist when the session scorecard, gates, and time exit are not already answered.
Improvised exits are where disciplined spread sellers lose their edge. Dynamic multiples encode max pain before you enter.
Adding the next vertical because premium looks good is how ladders blow up. Book load and zones translate stacked risk into one readable frame.
