Opening (IRA): SPX 3980/4030 Short Put Vertical
... for a 4.20 credit.
Comments: Selling the 16 delta, buying the 14 to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market with more room to be wrong than buying shares at market. 9.2% ROC at max; 4.6% at 50% max. Generally, will take profit at 50% max; loss at 2 x credit received.
Naturally, yesterday would've been the better day to put this on (i.e., in weakness, higher implied volatility).
