SPY is an ETF and SPX is an index. The distinction is material.

/ES does not trade between 5pm and 6pm ET. SPX options aren't marked until 8:15 PM ET.

It's more plausible that large caps see MWF, then MTWHF possibly.

Cool utility! I would be remiss if I didn’t mention synctest [1] which is quite excellent for not only async time testing but also catching subtle concurrency bugs.

Did anyone else click in excitedly after misreading ‘Vllm’ as ‘LLVM?’

FWIW I just import a canned CSS theme (Terminal CSS), MathJax, and the roll the rest in raw HTML;

it’s simple and maintainable.

FWIW, I also started writing code when I was 11 years old as well & I did so on Roblox.

Eventually, I branched out into hosting a webserver in PHP & writing small demos in Unity (though I would recommend Unreal nowadays).
