Opening (Small Account): IWM August 27th 200/205 SPV

... for a .53 credit.

Comments: Highest implied volatility of the majors at 25.3%. Sold the spread nearest 45 days until expiry that pays around 10% of the width of the spread to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market with more room to be wrong. Generally, take profit at 50% max; loss at 2 x credit received.
