Daily Options Seller Cockpit
What is Miss Lemon?
A visual risk cockpit for U.S. options sellers. It helps you read volatility, liquidity, credit, market posture, and event pressure before selling premium.
One question sits above every chart.
Is today a clean day to carry seller risk, or should exposure be smaller, later, or more selective? Miss Lemon turns a crowded market screen into one disciplined seller posture.
The purpose is not to predict every move. It is to make compensation, timing, and risk capacity visible before a position is opened.
The market is read as a connected system.
No single gauge decides the answer. Price and breadth show the tape; premium and volatility show compensation; liquidity, credit, rates, and the calendar test whether that compensation is durable.
- Volatility and premium quality
- Liquidity, credit, and rate pressure
- Market breadth, leadership, and sentiment
- CPI, FOMC, earnings, OPEX, and other event windows
Built for sellers who want a risk map before income.
The framework is useful for cash-secured puts, covered calls, Wheel workflows, and other short-premium research where sizing and timing matter as much as theta.
- Wheel sellers planning for assignment
- Cash-secured put sellers filtering rich quotes
- Covered-call sellers protecting ownership intent
- Short-volatility traders setting a risk budget first
A short path from evidence to posture.
The order matters. Start with the tape, test the premium, confirm the risk plumbing, and only then decide how much room the environment gives a seller.
- Read price and market breadth first.
- Check premium against volatility and event pressure.
- Confirm liquidity, credit, rates, and tail demand.
- Translate the evidence into a supportive, selective, defensive, or wait posture.
The product is the framework, not a promise.
