Leaving the NDX position alone paid off Today! I got out of the trade for a nice 13.75% profit in 5 trading sessions! I’m on my way to cash out the NDX Fast butterfly as well, and should we hang around these levels I’ll be out of the MNX iron butterfly too. It is all a matter of how the market behaves Tomorrow. One way or another, I’m ready to manage whatever comes my way

02/23 NDX Fast Butterfly
02/23 MNX Iron Butterfly
Yesterday’s decision of cutting delta came back to haunt me Today, I still don’t think it was a bad idea overall, as we still managed to post profits even though we had to sell out the call for a loss, then again, it goes back to trading rules I wanted to make sure the delta didn’t get out of control and it was getting there on the trade. If we consolidate for Tomorrow or so, I’ll get to my profit target and get out.
02/23 NDX Iron Butterfly
02/23 OEX Weekly Iron Condor
OEX made a fast descend Today, the iron condor position is still with a good probability of success. Now it is a matter of following closely to see if we find some sort of pull-back and/or consolidation, which I think might happen in the next day or so given the fact we’re trading around the moving averages and around the 500 price level on the daily chart.
