Give me the best options trade for the day

Screening Filters

1. names = ['SPY']
   • Purpose: Restrict the search universe to a single, specific underlying: the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY).
   • Rationale:
     • Your previous request and follow-up clearly focus on SPY: first you asked for “Technical analysis for SPY,” and now you’re asking for “the best options trade for SPY for today.”
     • Because you are not looking to compare multiple tickers or find “similar” ETFs, there is no need for sector, market-cap, volatility, or performance filters. The only relevant constraint is that the underlying must be SPY, so the screener is simply told to pull data for that one instrument.
     • Options trades (calls/puts, different expirations/strikes) all derive from the same underlying. To structure an intraday options trade, the core requirement is accurate, up-to-date data on SPY itself (price, volatility, technicals). Once SPY is isolated, the next step—choosing strike, expiry, and strategy—is done on the options chain, not via a multi-ticker equity screener.

Why Results Match:

• The user’s query is instrument-specific (“for SPY”) rather than a discovery query (e.g., “find ETFs suitable for intraday options trades”). Therefore, it is correct that the only filter is the name/ticker = SPY.
• By constraining the screener to SPY alone, all subsequent analysis and any recommended “best options trade for today” are directly tied to the exact ETF you specified, without diluting results with other tickers or unnecessary filters.
