Whether you should open more 0DTE positions depends on your risk appieitey. Here’s the breakdown to help you decide.
1. The 0DTE Opportunity
The primary reason to trade 0DTE on Mondays and Wednesdays is to capture hyper-accelerated time decay (Theta). 
Income Frequency: Instead of waiting a month for an option to expire, you can collect premiums 252 days a year.
Limited Overnight Risk: Since you enter and exit on the same day, you aren't vulnerable to "gap downs" or "gap ups" caused by news that breaks while the market is closed.
Low Capital Requirement: 0DTE options are much cheaper than longer-dated ones, providing massive leverage. 
The Middle Ground: Many traders in 2026 are using 0DTE-based ETFs (like $QDTE or $XDTE). These funds do the 0DTE selling for you, providing daily or weekly distributions without requiring you to manage the Greeks manually.
Go 0DTE if: You are an active trader who understands Gamma risk and wants to monetize daily volatility
