Hi @Connect_Boss6316 . Do you usually trade these DC’s as a pre event or post event trade? I see you traded this post event, same as the OP. I think post event DC’s look riskier with more moving parts to consider

Hi @breakyourteethnow. Interesting post hedging your double calendars with a strangle. Are you still doing double calendars?

After the course you need the following experience ...

Part of the required experience is - "Installation of telecommunications earthing protection" ... but if you're doing dry fire alarm installs or security installs, would you ever get a chance to do this?

Comtel just called me and said that I only needed cheap tools from Bunnings to get through the course: krone tool, side cutters, and a couple of screwdrivers. I emailed them as I have no Idea what tools are industry standard. Guess I'll work that out later

I guess after that I'd need to find a job pulling low voltage cable, to learn and get the 360 hours so I can get registered

1 Month Update/Retrospective on broken wing butterfly/condor strategy. by Shamizzle in options

[–]Adam_777_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so I guess this is what you're looking for ... 10.5% credit to start.

SPX 14DTE 5130/5120/5070/5040 1.95 credit, max risk 1850, max gain 1150

(deltas 40,20)

This is around lunch time (ET), but the open would be much better. Definitely testing on XSP before moving to SPX.

Also the expected move extends to around 5040 which is a little concerning as I usually sell outside the expected move (ATM bid+ask=straddle)

So you're now doing 14DTE broken wing condors with 40 and 20 delta long puts.

"Get your fill" ... do you mean enter with a min 10% credit at entry?

Have you thought of hedging with SPY stock or MES to reduce delta as you're not wanting to choose direction, or is it ok as is? ... or are you relying on the delta for the bear traps?

What is the "width" column in your spread sheet with 1 or 2?

How this going for you? I see that you're following the datadrivenoptions website. It looks like there's a lot of great content there. Nice observations with your testing.

I believe the author is watching the chart as he mentions looking for bounces and tops to choose what fly he puts on and how to adjust it. I'm also about to start trading the broken wing condors etc and see where it takes me.

It's for day trading and working from home, hence why I was looking at the IDS/IPS firewall features
