Why SPXW is different from standard monthly SPX
SPXW is used for short-dated SPX expirations. It can appear on weekdays that are not the standard monthly Friday cycle.
For backtests, record the exact root and expiration date. Mixing SPX and SPXW semantics can produce wrong settlement assumptions and misleading intraday results.
