BOUGHT TO CLOSE SPY JUNE 3RD 212/215 SHORT CALL VERTICALWith only 14 DTE left for this particular iron condor, I'm pulling off the short call side at near worthless (a $5 debit) rather than rolling it toward current price. (The call wing was worth $45/contract, so closing it out here nets me $40/contract). I'll keep an eye on the short put side (196/200) as expiration approaches. At this point, I would be more than satisfied to close it out at 50% max, since I've already closed the call side for near max profit ... .

BOUGHT TO CLOSE RUT/IUX APRIL 1ST 1120/1130 SHORT CALL VERTWith this little down move here, I closed out the short call side of my RUT/IUX iron condor -- the April 1st 1120/1130 short call wing. The short call wing of the iron condor was worth approximately $166 in credit/contract when put on as part of the iron condor, and I closed it out today for a $40 debit, yielding a profit of about $126/contract for that side. To give the put side a little more time and room to work out, I rolled it out and down to the April 8th expiry for a $4 debit and will erect a new call wing in the April 8th expiry tomorrow ... .
