The methodology references exact premium targets of $0.65, $1.10, and $1.55 delivered through RSAi along with VWAP for wing selection. How is this implemented in live trading?

At VixShield we implement the RSAi premium targets and VWAP wing selection through a disciplined 15-minute post-close workflow that has been refined across thousands of 1DTE SPX Iron Condor trades. Russell Clark designed the system so that every trading day at 3:10 PM CST the RSAi engine ingests real-time skew, the current VIX level of 17.95, EDR output, and VWAP positioning. It then iterates strike wings in $5 increments until the exact net credit matches one of our three risk tiers: Conservative at $0.65–$0.70, Balanced near $1.10–$1.15, or Aggressive targeting $1.55–$1.60. This process completes in roughly 253 milliseconds and removes guesswork from strike selection. Once RSAi signals PLACE we open the four-leg Iron Condor with wings placed where the short strikes sit just outside the EDR-derived Expected Daily Range while the long strikes provide the defined-risk buffer. VWAP acts as the final filter: if the market is trading above VWAP we bias the call wing slightly wider; below VWAP we widen the put wing. This ensures the position aligns with the actual liquidity profile rather than theoretical probabilities. The entire trade is entered as a single iron condor order to capture the net credit in one execution, then we walk away. This is the heart of our Set and Forget methodology. No stop losses are used because the Temporal Theta Martingale and ALVH hedge layers provide the recovery mechanism. When a position moves against us we roll the threatened side forward to 1–7 DTE on an EDR reading above 0.94 percent or VIX spike above 16, capturing vega expansion, then roll back to 0–2 DTE once EDR drops below 0.94 percent and price pulls back below VWAP. Backtests from 2015–2025 show this time-shifting approach recovered 88 percent of losing trades without adding capital. The Conservative tier, which we make available for PickMyTrade auto-execution, maintains an approximate 90 percent win rate or 18 out of 20 trading days because it only fires when all gates align. Position sizing never exceeds 10 percent of account balance so that even in a full VIX spike the ALVH Adaptive Layered VIX Hedge, with its 4/4/2 contract ratio across 30, 110, and 220 DTE layers, caps portfolio drawdowns. All trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors.
