I know you mentioned about week-end delete in many posts. Can you please shed some light on it? e.g. Consider a calendar 22AUG 5600 and 27AUG 5600. As per calendar days on Friday 16th close 22AUG 5600 has 6 DTE and 27AUG 5600 has 11 DTE. What DTEs you would use when modelling above trade? I...

Thanks for looking into this. Yes It includes the Sunday also as part of DTE. But I plotted Monday graph and it is like below. It is using 8.9, 9.1 and 10.5 as IVs in the calculation. Which I verified against barchart data, it is also showing the same IVs . Skew-lock also looks identical. I'm...

It looks like you don't have basic knowledge on options. I suggest you to stop producing low effort content here.

You can use future price which accounts for intrest rate and black 76 model.
