    I’m opening an Iron Fly 100 point wide on SPX:




    I will set aside 4K to manage this position in case I need to make adjustments.

    SPX is up almost 3% today. I’m rolling the short put up expecting a continuation of this short squeeze.

    SPX took back more than half of the big move up yesterday so my expectations for continuation are not looking as good.

    I’m bringing the lower wing up to reduce deltas again. In this market you have to be ok with being wrong and change your view based on what the market is telling you.

    Big up move today put some pressure on this position which is accumulating more negative delta. I’m rolling the short puts up to flatten out deltas a bit.

    Current profile:

    SPX moved above the previous swing high and I’m expecting 3800 to become the next support.

    I am moving the whole structure up to stay delta neutral and to have a bit more theta.

    Closing this trade for a $180 profit. We have 11 days left in the trade and FOMC on Wednesday might hold premiums and make it more difficult to exit.
