OPENING: EWW SEPTEMBER 18TH 32/33 SKINNY SHORT STRANGLE
Updated
... for a 2.44/contract credit.
Notes: With price trading in between the 32 and 33 strikes, went skinny short strangle in lieu of short straddle. Since it's almost a straddle, I'll look to take profit at 25% max.
I've gone ahead and shown defined risk wings for an iron fly/skinny iron condor setup on the chart -- the September 18th 28/32/33/37, which was paying 1.97 as of the writing of this post, just short of the one-half the width of the wings I look for out of an iron fly (i.e., this would be a four-wide iron fly, so would ideally look for around 2.00 in credit out of it).
