How Brakeline thinks:
β’ Far out-of-the-money SPX 0DTE spreads
β’ Wait for a premium thatβs actually worth it
β’ Trend brakes β no falling knives
β’ Always ingesting data; history keeps the bar honest (incl. VIX / VIX1D vs premium)
Personal project, not advice.

Fridayβs loss entry doesnβt open in the replay. β
Daily close recaps continue. Not advice.
Friday we took a hard-stop loss on a put credit spread in a fast selloff. β
We updated the bot from that history: the day gate now blocks entries when short-horizon momentum is still pushing against our side. π οΈ
