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 Role of SPY 0DTE in the Market

While the SPX is favored by institutional funds due to its cash settlement and tax advantages, the SPY ETF remains the king of accessibility. Its smaller notional value makes it highly attractive to retail traders and algorithmic flow looking to trade daily market volatility.

Trading SPY 0DTE requires an acute awareness of physical settlement risk. Holding an in-the-money SPY contract at 4:00 PM EST means you may be assigned shares of the ETF, unlike SPX which simply settles to cash.
