The portfolio is still under a profit zone, there is not many deltas, this may not be so good if we have a big drop Tomorrow. We'll see what happens.

06/01 Greek Salad (paper)
06/01 DIA Iron Butterfly
06/01 SPY Calendar
06/01 MDY 30-Day Condor
I hedged the position using debit spreads because there were no long contracts available to cut small deltas. It was very inneffective and as a result it hit max loss. I couldn't get out with no fills on the PUT side, so I hedged once again and will re-evaluate it Tomorrow.
One possibility is to add a calendar to the trade, it obviously increases the capital allocation, but it might be worth if it allows me some breathing room to save the position (See possible profile bellow).

06/01 RUT 30-Day condor
06/01 RUT 50-Day Condor
Today was rough on the position! It is in rough shape, the good thing here is that this is not my full allocation for JULY Condors, so I still have potential for gains by allocating the remaining capital once the market shows some signals of stabilizing.
As far as the current trade, I'll manage it by the rules, if it hits -1.5x my cashflow I'm out.
