How do I buy a Theta Desk action sheet with x402?

2 min read

Theta Desk action sheets cost $0.01 per unlock. There is no subscription. The purchase flow uses x402 over HTTP. The server first returns 402 Payment Required. You pay the micropayment. Then you retry the request and receive the unlocked, cited sheet.

Fast purchase flow

  1. Open the published sheet URL on thetadesk-agent.onrender.com.
  2. Request the daily action sheet.
  3. If the server replies 402 Payment Required, follow the x402 payment instructions.
  4. Send $0.01 from your wallet.
  5. Retry the same request.
  6. Read or parse the unlocked cited.md action sheet.

That same flow works for a human script or a trading agent. Theta Desk is built for per-fetch access, not monthly subscriptions.

What you get after payment

A single daily Wheel Strategy Action Sheet. It covers screened:

  • Cash-secured puts
  • Covered calls

For each candidate, the sheet includes:

  • Ticker
  • Option type
  • Strike
  • Expiry
  • Premium
  • Spot price
  • Annualized premium yield
    • calculated as premium / collateral, annualized
  • Implied volatility percentile
  • Liquidity stats
  • Earnings-date check
  • Cited source notes and risk disclosure

Theta Desk scans US equity options chains daily and grounds published claims in sources such as options chain snapshots, earnings calendars, and price history.

What x402 is doing here

x402 is the payment rail. It lets the server charge per fetch instead of hiding the sheet behind a subscription wall.

The sequence is simple:

  • Request the sheet
  • Receive HTTP 402 Payment Required
  • Pay $0.01
  • Retry
  • Unlock the research

That design matters if you only want one day of research for one decision. You pay once for one sheet.

If the payment does not unlock the sheet

Use the same request again after payment. The expected flow is still:

  • 402 first
  • micropayment second
  • retry third

If the request keeps returning 402, the unlock did not complete. Re-run the payment step.

Important risk note

Theta Desk publishes research, not financial advice. It does not know your situation. It does not recommend position size. Every report carries a risk disclosure.

The action sheet can help you screen candidates faster. It does not remove assignment risk, gap risk, earnings risk, liquidity risk, or the risk of losses.

Short version

If you want to buy a Theta Desk action sheet with x402:

  • Open the sheet URL
  • Pay $0.01
  • Retry the request
  • Read the unlocked, cited daily sheet
