High-risk sleeve book from typed Barchart figures (spot, net GEX $B, put/call walls, ATM IV %, IVP). GEX picks side; IV and IVP pick size. Live tickets are sized here — not from the GEX scan. Open the seven-name basket once; flatten at 3:30. Playbook in .prompt.
Sleeve rules
Meter
ĝ = tanh(GEX $B / 2). v = tanh(ATM IV% / 20). p = IVP 0–100.
Sell (GEX ≥ 0): m = |ĝ| × (50 + p/2) / 100 × (0.5 + 0.5 v)
Buy (GEX < 0): m = |ĝ| × p/100 × v × (0.25 + 0.75·geo)
geo = min(1, daily implied move / cage width); 1 if cage unknown. Blank IV → 15%, blank IVP → 50.
No 0.25 sit-out. Skip a name only when m = 0 or budget cannot fund one contract.
Basket
SPY, QQQ, IWM, GLD, SLV, TLT, IBIT. Weight wi = mi / Σ m. Budget = o(a) × wi. Open once, 3:30 flat, no recycle. Round-trip cap ≥ 7. Equity cluster (SPY/QQQ/IWM) capped at half of deployed weight.
Mixed GEX is the hedge
Pin (SPY, QQQ, IWM, TLT, GLD): sell when +GEX, sit out when −GEX — never a buy. Expansion (IBIT, SLV): buy when −GEX, never short. h = expansion-long budget / pin-short budget. If h = 0 you are running an unhedged pin book — the book already sizes pin shorts at half of o(a). Do not add noisy shorts. TLT/gold are not crash hedges in the 2024–2026 sample. Daily cap d(a)/2 is the wipeout brake.
Scan mix
- Equity +GEX, IBIT/SLV −GEX and IVP alive — the setup. Size longs so they can offset pin max loss.
- Everything +GEX — no hedge. Short pin names only (or sit noisy names out).
- Everything −GEX — long-vol basket. Sit pin names out; IBIT/SLV carry.
- Equity −GEX, IBIT +GEX — skip the IBIT short (wrong way around).
0DTE structure
Pin +GEX: sell iron condor (inside) or snap-back credit (outside). Expansion −GEX: buy reverse iron condor. Pin −GEX and expansion +GEX: skip. GEX flip trails only on the matching role. $1 width default. Fill ~$0.30.
One iron condor from IV and IV percentile. IV sets the ±1σ short strikes to expiry. IVP picks the side — below 50 sell the condor, 50 and up buy it — and scales size. Realized vol and the condor's own price decide whether this one is worth taking.
Volume & OI
Total call + put volume and open interest for each expiration within Max DTE (same window as GEX advisory). Avg ATM IV is the mean call/put IV at the strike nearest spot, on the right-hand % axis.
Condor rules
Strikes
t = days to 4:15 PM ET on expiration. width = spot × IV × √(t / 365) — the 1σ move.
Body strikes at spot ± width (snapped outward to listed strikes). Wings one wing width beyond. Sell them when IVP < 50; buy them when IVP ≥ 50.
Side & size
From scripts/condor_setup.py: conv = IVP − 0.5 (IVP as 0–1). Below 0 sell the condor; 0 and up buy it. Conviction % = |conv| × 200.
risk = account / (1 − |conv|). contracts = round(risk × 0.5 / (wing width × 100)) with sign from the side — nearest rounding, same unit long or short.
Pricing gate
IVP picks the side; the condor's live price says whether this one is worth it. Sell only when the credit is at least 30% of the wing width (30/70). Buy only when the debit is at most 30% (70/30).
Bad pricing is usually just bad pricing — pass or change width or expiry rather than flipping sides.
VRP (IV vs realized)
Script: VRP = IV / HV. The cards also label fat (≥ 1.1×) vs thin and whether that agrees with the IVP side — VRP never flips the side.
- Fat VRP, low IVP — fear markup in calm; the usual short harvest.
- Thin VRP, high IVP — underlying-led vol; selective long.
- Fat VRP, high IVP — crisis and expensive insurance; longs pay up.
- Thin VRP, low IVP — calm and cheap; thin premium to sell.
Per-name tickets from a chain scan. Live sleeve sizing is typed Barchart numbers on Trade advisory.
IV, GEX & OI surfaces
3D IV, dealer-style GEX, and open-interest surfaces from a saved GEX scan (Redis on prod, data/gex locally). Uses the Max DTE and strike band above. Archives older than 30 days are removed automatically. GEX Z-axis is in $B (same BS gamma + OI convention as advisory). OI is contract count at each strike/DTE (call+put summed on avg).
Replay archived GEX scans through the live ticket rules and session exits. Run GEX advisory first so mornings land in Redis (prod) or data/gex (local).
