What was the original trade? Need strikes and price
SPX C: 2275 - 2300 P: 2250 - 2275
credit $20.02 -- результат нескольких adjustments.
правильный термин, Iron butterfly when writing the same strike put and call.
Вы пользуетесь каким-нибудь калькулятором?

BTW, SPX is primarily used by institutions. I find it very difficult to trade this product with my size. Bid/Ask spread is too wide and it takes forever to close or roll the position. I prefer SPY, which happen to be most liquid product out there.

Let's see how markets treat Trump's actions over the weekend. Hopefully, we'll have some volatility to play with

This trade is pretty neutral. I want the stock to open between 124 and 116. I couldn't collect enough credit for strangle, so I had to sell extra call.
I cannot believe how good the earnings season was in January.

Почему ето? Нормальная позиция
Тоже самое, что быть short 122 shares of APPL.
Каждый опцион иммеет .90 of extrinsic value, что дает мне additional 2.70 of protection to the up side
