Morning Scan: Five New Setups in Neutral Territory
At 9:45 AM ET, the algorithm published five new option setups across the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 universe. SPY remained in NEUTRAL regime with Fear & Greed at 48—neither panic nor euphoria.
The day's highest-conviction pick was GBCI, scoring 95/100 with a 49% win probability and entry at $48.82. SPXC followed at 88/100 (44% win prob, $239.99 entry), then KDP at 81/100 (44% win prob, $31.46). GD and TFC rounded out the slate at 66/100 and 61/100 respectively, both carrying 43% win probabilities. Full details are available on live results.
Today's Closes: Two Losses via Stop Premium
Two positions exited today, both at losses:
- •HQY (options): -41.7% return, stopped out via STOP_PREMIUM. Entered June 1.
- •SNOW (options): -43.8% return, stopped out via STOP_PREMIUM. Entered May 28.
Both trades hit their premium-decay exit thresholds before expiration. Neither position recovered to profitability. The algorithm's stop discipline prevented further deterioration, but the day's close tally stands at 0 wins, 2 losses.
Running Record: 365-Day Snapshot

Average return per trade is 8.6% (outliers capped at ±150%), with average winners at +55.3% and average losers at -21.4%.
