In this episode, I'll cover how that went and two other similar call credit spreads we traded since then. All with the same analysis in mind.

There's an intraday seasonality pattern that continues to work this year and I decided to explore it further. This pattern has been coming up at AlphaCrunching.com which is a web app that tracks intraday seasonality patterns of the S&P500 via SPX. I've been trading the pattern with success lately through 0DTE or same day expiration options and wanted to share how its going as well as backtest this farther back in time to see just how long this pattern has been working.
