Reply to comment by [deleted] in What is a sucesssful rate of return for an options trader. by Aimadness

when you say "the rise in 0DTE contracts"

do you mean like "with 0DTEs becoming more popular..."? or do you mean "since 0DTEs are somewhat still a relatively new strategy that retail investors can use..."

I've only been trading em for 3 years and was under the impression ppl have been doing it longer than i

Lol no, they came recently. I know in 2008 there used to be just monthlies.... Today around 50% of the trading happens in 0DTE. Also, daily options are not counted in VIX so vix is artificially suppressed even after so much volatility.
