Cboe Global Markets is set to host a virtual webinar exploring the evolution and strategic use of Zero Days to Expiration (0DTE) options, providing traders with advanced tools to manage market uncertainty. The free online event, led by Henry Schwartz, Vice President of Derivatives Market Intelligence at Cboe, will examine how these innovative financial instruments can help traders respond quickly to market changes.
The webinar traces the development of 0DTE options, which began in 2005 with the introduction of weekly S&P 500 Index options. By 2022, Cboe had expanded these options to offer daily expiration opportunities, giving traders unprecedented flexibility in managing short-term market volatility.
With current market conditions characterized by significant uncertainty, particularly surrounding trade policies and economic fluctuations, 0DTE options present a strategic approach for traders. These options allow for more precise trading, lower capital requirements, and the ability to adjust positions rapidly in response to market events.
The one-hour session will cover practical strategies for incorporating 0DTE options into trading portfolios, with a particular focus on managing risk during periods of economic uncertainty. Schwartz will discuss how traders can leverage these options to navigate volatile markets, especially in sectors like automobiles and semiconductors that are sensitive to policy changes.
Participants will have the opportunity to engage directly with Schwartz during a live Q&A session, enabling them to gain deeper insights into these complex trading instruments. The webinar is designed to accommodate both experienced options traders and those new to advanced trading strategies.
