VIX Call roll?

[jzymetalgear]

Hi I want to thank you for this amazing project! I have been running it for a while on my TWS paper account and performed very well. Just have one question regarding the VIX call hedge configuration. I have turned on the VIX call but did not see any "roll" option so will the vix call just expire on expiration date or maybe I miss something? Thank you!

It won't roll the VIX calls, they are held until expiration.

so if I manually close the vix call, the next day it will continue to monitor and try to place a new vix call? ( I have cron job setup to run every day). Thanks!

Yes, if you close the call, ThetaGang will try to open a new position next time it runs. You can optionally ignore calls with less than N days remaining to expiration.
