Nasdaq is launching a new options pilot program starting January 26th. Traders will gain access to options contracts expiring on Mondays and Wednesdays, expanding flexibility beyond traditional Thursday expirations. This expanded expiration schedule offers more frequent opportunities to adjust positions and manage short-term exposure across the options chain.

more expiration days = more ways to blow up your account faster, honestly. monday/wednesday contracts sound nice on paper till you realize retail traders will just use em to chase losses even harder lol

Expire on Monday and Wednesday? Now short-term traders have work to do again, but to be honest, I still remain bearish on this wave.

ngl more expiration dates sounds great until you're bleeding money on five different legs at once... been there, lost that. monday-wednesday expirations = more ways to get wrecked if you're not monitoring your health factor like a hawk. not financial advice but... keep those collateral ratios TIGHT. remember 2022? we do.

Expires on Monday and Wednesday? Well, that's good news—now you have two more days to risk your blood pressure rising.
