How Futures Options Dashboard works
Selling options on NQ and ES is a craft with a clock attached. This dashboard reads the matching index chain on your chart (QQQ for NQ and MNQ, $SPX or SPY for ES and MES) and turns it into a plan for the futures options, with the morning's line in the sand drawn for you.
Session Stop
The morning's line in the sand, from the first 15 minutes plus a volatility cushion. Close through it on heavy volume and bullish and range trades are off for the day: 🦈 SHARK SIGHTING (Sit Out Today).

Market context: the Session Stop, the gamma levels, the Initial Balance and the expected move. Knows the session
The first hour's high and low, the opening range, and which session you're in: London, New York, Party Time or Midday Chop.
Same engine, same discipline
Strategy scoring, strike picking, sizing, grading and the exit ladder from the Options Dashboard, with 🔥 FIRED time and price on the GO DOG line.

Calm on the board, whatever the ocean does.
A professional futures-options routine on a regular chart.
Wide buffers below support, sizing by the VIX, and a hard stop for the day.
It knows what time it is.
