Decision surface

Options Yield Matrix

Compare strikes and expirations in one grid to evaluate monthly yield, premium, breakeven, and probability before you commit to a setup.

01

Single decision surface

The yield matrix shows strikes and expirations in one grid so you can compare income tradeoffs without jumping between tabs or symbols.

02

Yield plus structure

Review monthly yield, premium, breakeven, and probability together to understand the full setup instead of only the headline premium.

Shortlist by rules

Set a target yield, probability threshold, and date window first, then use the grid to narrow to the contracts that fit your plan.

04

Best used as a comparator

The matrix is strongest when it is used to compare candidates side by side before you move into the scanner or Visualizer.
