New Trade : RUT

Stock / Symbol: Russell 2000 / RUT

Option Strategy: [private_monthly]iron condor[/private_monthly]

Price at trade post: $834

Reasoning: With 30 days till November expiration, it's time to put on a new [private_monthly]Iron Condor on RUT. With an expected deviation of 45 points between now and November expiration, I'm selling the 885 calls and the 780 puts.[/private_monthly] The trade overall is 1.02 delta(neutral), 11.62 theta, and -36.59 vega. [private_monthly]The calls we're selling have a delta of .07 and the puts we're setting have a -.14 delta. The probability of success on this trade is 85%. If RUT either trades up to $860 or down to $805, we'll either stop out of the trade or adjust by rolling to a further out of the money call or put spread. Once filled, immediately set separate GTC orders to buy back the put spread and the call spread for $0.15 each. [/private_monthly]
