The LIZ and JNY Show - November 17, 2025 - The LIZ and JNY Show: SPX Zero-DTE Trades: Cash Settlement Explained
Update: 2025-11-17
Description
Markets experienced significant volatility Monday with S&P futures down 17 points and the VIX climbing to 21, suggesting potential downward momentum. Hosts discussed the difference between various volatility metrics, including the VIX, VIX-1D, and VVIX (volatility of volatility).
The pair analyzed SPX zero-DTE trades, addressing viewer questions about cash settlement versus physical settlement in SPX versus SPY options. They emphasized the advantages of cash-settled products like SPX and XSP, particularly for accounts under the pattern day trading threshold.
Despite market turbulence, cryptocurrency assets faced even steeper declines, with Bitcoin hitting new recent lows. The hosts examined IBIT positions and discussed adjustment strategies for defined-risk trades rather than inverting positions.
For new traders, they recommended starting with liquid products and using watchlists sorted by metrics like 52-week lows or implied volatility rank to identify potential trade candidates.
