Morning Yoga Workflow — DTE Margin Analysis

1DTE Regime (Recommended)
Margin multiplier: 1.0×
Sizing factor: 100%
Gamma risk: moderate
Optimal window: enter during morning yoga, let theta work overnight
0DTE Regime (Sniper)
Margin multiplier: ~1.5-2.0×
Sizing factor: 50-67%
Gamma risk: extreme
Optimal window: post-9:30am, tight spreads only
Last 6h (Auto-scale)
Margin multiplier: 2.0-2.5×
Sizing factor: 40-50%
PLL auto-reduces: tau-scaled max_risk
Close-only below τ=0.001 (~2h to expiry)
DTE margin factor now wired into margin-calc → sniper → PLL. dte_sizing_factor(tau) automatically scales position size inversely with margin cost. 1DTE gets full Kelly lots; 0DTE gets half.
