07/15 SPX Iron Butterfly *Stopped*

Not happy to report the trade bit the dust Today. No way to survive such a strong move in the last week with that much Gamma. That's why the folks at Sheridan Mentoring are strong about beign SUPER careful during the expiration week.

Well, I had the option to exit around 10 AM EST at max loss. It would be my clue to shut down the trade. I left the position open just to see what it will happen to it, but as far as this experience is concerned, the trade is over at max loss + some (commissions and slippage).
