Federal Reserve Announces Rate Decision

The Federal Reserve has published official communications regarding its interest rate policy, a key event for 0DTE options volatility and IV pricing.

The Engine Behind Intraday Volatility

While technical levels and dealer gamma exposure provide the structural boundaries of the market, macroeconomic data provides the fundamental spark. When an economic release deviates from analyst expectations, the broader indices reprice immediately. For 0DTE options—which have no time left until expiration—these macro shocks cause explosive intraday price swings.

We distinguish carefully between scheduled data releases and unexpected breaking news, as the options market prices them differently.
