Are traders using the Conservative tier targeting a 0.70 credit with RSAi and EDR? Is the approximately 90 percent win rate realistic or primarily the result of backtested optimism?

At VixShield we rely exclusively on one-day-to-expiration SPX Iron Condors placed after the 3:09 PM CST cascade with signals firing at 3:10 PM CST Monday through Friday. The Conservative tier targets a 0.70 credit and is the only tier currently available for PickMyTrade auto-execution. Strike selection begins with our proprietary EDR indicator which blends short-term implied volatility from VIX9D and 20-day historical volatility to forecast the expected daily range. RSAi then applies real-time skew analysis across the options surface along with VWAP positioning and recent VIX momentum to fine-tune the wings until the exact credit target is reached typically within 253 milliseconds. This combination produces mathematically optimized placements that match what the market is actually willing to pay rather than generic probability-based strikes. The Conservative tier has delivered an approximate 90 percent win rate roughly 18 out of 20 trading days across our 2015-2025 backtests and live trading records. That figure is not backtested optimism. It reflects the deliberate choice of narrower range but higher-probability wings placed inside the EDR-derived boundaries combined with the Theta Time Shift recovery mechanism. When a position is threatened we roll forward to one-to-seven DTE on an EDR reading above 0.94 percent or VIX above 16 capturing vega expansion then roll back to zero-to-two DTE once EDR falls below 0.94 percent and price trades below VWAP. This Temporal Theta Martingale approach has recovered 88 percent of losses without adding capital or employing stop losses. The ALVH hedge runs in the background with its three-layer VIX call structure rolled on fixed schedules cutting portfolio drawdowns by 35 to 40 percent at an annual cost of only one to two percent of account value. Position sizing remains at a maximum of ten percent of account balance per trade and we adhere strictly to VIX Risk Scaling: all tiers are available below VIX 15 while the Conservative tier remains usable up to VIX 20. Current market conditions with VIX at 17.95 and below its five-day moving average of 18.58 place us in a contango regime that continues to favor premium collection. All trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors.
