Morning Scan: 12 New Setups in Neutral Sentiment

At 9:45 AM ET, the algorithm published 12 new option setups across S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 names. SPY remains in BEAR regime, and the Fear & Greed index sits at 52—neutral territory. The scan leaned toward mid-cap and large-cap names, with quality scores ranging from 53 to 80.

MSI led the pack at 80/100 (34% win probability), with entry at $475.99, stop at $460.87, and target at $514.07. Two setups scored 70/100: GH at $167 entry, HQY at $106.48, and FCX at $74.55. The remaining nine ranged from 67 down to 53, with win probabilities between 26% and 35%. Check the Morning Brief for full context on market conditions.

Closes & Housekeeping

No positions closed during today's trading session. The book remains intact with all active setups still running. No aged positions (30+ days old) were cleared today either, so the portfolio housekeeping queue is empty.

Running 365-Day Record

Over the trailing 12 months, the algorithm has closed 454 trades with a 33.3% win rate (expired contracts counted as losses). The profit factor stands at 1.56, meaning gross wins are 1.56× gross losses. Average return per trade is 11.3% (outliers capped at ±150%), with average winners at +94.3% and average losers at −30.1%.

These numbers reflect the full distribution of outcomes—both the trades that worked and those that didn't. See live results for the complete trade log and daily breakdowns.

Verify everything

Every setup above was published at 9:45 AM ET — before the market opened — and logged to the same database that powers our live results. Expired contracts are booked as full losses and outlier wins are capped in our averages, so the published stats are a floor, not a highlight reel. Want tomorrow's setups in your inbox before the bell? That's the Morning Brief.
