Three trades, three profits, one day and zero stress – if you followed the rules.
Ahoy there, Trader! ⚓️
It’s Phil…
July 31 looked like it might be a one-hit wonder.
Then trade two hit.
Then trade three, the one I’d nearly written off… delivered too.
Three trades. One system. All green.
This wasn’t luck or crystal-ball voodoo.
This was the SPX Income System doing what it was built to do: execute rules, stack probabilities, and let time do the work.

SPX Options = Cashflow Engine.
With this setup? It’s practically an ATM with a checklist.
SPX DeBriefing:
1. ORB15 – 55 Minutes to First Profit
Setup: Break of the 15-minute opening range
Type: 0-DTE credit spread
Fill: $0.80
Exit: $0.40 buyback – 50% ROC
Duration: 55 minutes
Sometimes fast is best.
This was a classic ORB15 entry: price broke early, trade filled, and less than an hour later I was done for the day. Well, almost done.
No wiggles, no worries – just the first tick on the scoreboard.
2. ORB60 – Set, Forget, Get Paid
Setup: Break of the 60-minute range
Type: 0-DTE credit spread
Fill: $5.10
Exit: $0.10 buyback – 98.1% ROC
Duration: Held through the session, exited before the close
This is the setup that works while you work.
A clean break of the 60-min range gave us a mechanical entry. Trade went on. I did other things. Profit locked in before the bell.
This is why I call it “day trading for people who don’t want to day trade.”
3. Overnight Swing – From Write-Off to Win
Setup: Bearish breakout from previous day’s zone
Type: 1-DTE swing trade (entered July 30)
Fill: $3.00 credit
Exit: $0.30 buyback – 90% ROC
Duration: Overnight to just before close on the 31st
This one nearly got binned.
Tech earnings hit after hours. Futures gapped up 60+ points. The open looked like a disaster for the trade.
But patience matters.
SPX reversed back into the prior range, dropped into the mapped breakout zone… and triggered the exact pattern the system tracks. Exit hit. Win bagged. Blood pressure returned to normal.
✅ Final Thoughts:
You don’t need magic.
You don’t need to be right.
You just need to know what setups to take – and when to leave them alone.
Three different trades. One set of rules.
That’s what made July 31 a triple crown win.
Happy trading,
Phil
