Each board sorts on one axis so you can spot yield, execution quality (spreads), or fundamental/quality tilt without re-scanning the full opportunity table. High yield alone is not a green light - check spread and tags.
Ranks names by annualized CSP yield (mid/strike × 365/dte) among contracts that still have a live bid/ask in band. Useful for premium hunting, but extreme yields often pair with wide spreads, thin books, or elevated crash risk - always read Spread and Tag.
