The late-morning appointment: sell the at-the-money straddle at 11:00, after the open's chaos has resolved but while a full day of premium remains on the table.
Cumulative net profit, this strategy alone, after all costs.

Signal. None — a standing appointment, like Meridian, one hour earlier: the opening hour’s directional violence has usually spent itself by 11:00, while the day still holds five hours of harvestable decay.
Entry, 11:00 New York. Sell the at-the-money call and put; buy protective wings 3.5% out. Net credit must exceed $1.00 with all four legs traded — on SPX this passes roughly one morning in three.
Stop. 2.0× credit. Exit. 15:48.
Audit trail. Certified across all three markets in a single sitting — t-statistics of 5.1–10.5 on every train and test cell — and its entry time is insensitive to ±7 minutes of randomization, a robustness property verified deliberately.
The complete record — nothing curated. Each trade sells one STRADDLE — a call and a put at the same strike K — and buys two protective wings (put wing · call wing strikes shown). 'Sold C / P' are the two short legs' entry prices, 'Bought C / P' their buy-back prices; wing prices are shown as the pair's combined value. Prices are per index point (×$100). Fired because the entry clock was reached — this strategy trades by appointment, every qualifying day. Margin is exact: wing width − credit. Costs = 8 contract-sides × $1.35 + $0.25 regulatory. STOP = premium stop; THESIS = the level broke; EOD = scheduled 15:48 exit. All times New York.

Radiant Research is a research demonstration by the V6 systematic trading project. All results are backtested on historical exchange data (Jun 2024 – Sep 2026 for SPX), net of modelled commissions, exchange and regulatory fees and half the bid–ask spread. They are not live results, not a solicitation, and not investment advice. Options involve substantial risk of loss.
