This 0DTE SPX Close Setup Printed 989% in 5 Minutes | John Carter

The final minutes of the trading day can offer some of the cleanest, highest-probability opportunities in the market — if you know exactly what to look for.

In this video, John Carter walks through a real 0DTE SPX close-of-day setup that played out almost perfectly, delivering a 9:1 risk-reward in just minutes. You’ll see how market structure, internals, order flow, and pin risk came together near the close — and why these trades can be both repeatable and scalable.

John breaks down the decision-making process in real time, explains why patience matters during the final 20 minutes, and shows how debit spreads allow traders to define risk while targeting asymmetric returns. This isn’t hindsight — it’s how professional traders approach the close every single day.

You’ll also hear insights on broader market context, including VIX expiration behavior, market internals, Tesla’s all-time highs, and how to think about continuation versus reversal setups going into the next session.

If you trade SPX, options, or 0DTE strategies, this video will sharpen how you approach end-of-day risk, sizing, and execution.
