Track record
Each day's calls are the options hunt page's rows at the 12:45 PT run: up to 15 cheap (buy) and 15 rich (sell) names per tenor at the $1M flow floor, one contract each, exactly as the page showed them. The comparison is every heavy-flow name in the same tenor, priced by the same rule. Buys enter at the ask, sells at the bid, plus $0.0065 a share; each later trading day is marked at the mid of the 12:45 PT run (an option with no bid is marked at half its offer, and the table also shows those marks at the bid), early-close days add no calls, and an option held to expiry is settled at its value on the official close. No early exits. A return is shown only when its exact mark exists.
The options hunt ranks today's heavy-flow names by how their option prices compare with realized volatility. Each day's calls are recorded once, before any outcome is known, and never rewritten; a correction would be a new, dated record. Sells are scored as single short options; live trading would use a defined-risk spread. Not investment advice.
