I think I've seen this question asked before but didn't really give it any thought. Since the SPX has a SET expiration value on Fridays, why...
I've been doing some analysis on this and it seems like it would probably be preferable to use indices that don't have next morning expiration...
Coach: Can we do an analysis on the opposite position, i.e. BTO 25/STO 50/BTO 25 (since us retail guys can't do what you're doing). Presumably...
Heather: I was only able to get this to work for SPX credit spread with SPX hedge. I posted awhile back in the forum and someone responding...
Coach: You've been talking about closing these positions during opex week of the front month (or maybe it was just after op expiration)....
Awhile back, risk mentioned 'time flies'. Is this a time butterfly? Can you point me to some information on these? It looks like what Coach...
Mo: I'm looking to diversify away from credit spreads. Any pointers? Thanks.

Thanks, risk: I've wondered about this part. Many of Murray's posts mention how the debit on these spreads tends to stay fairly constant over...
Scoobie: Thanks for posting your trade. I have a question on your strategy for closing at the short strike. I thought that this was...
Ryan: Which "bearish" positions are you holding. Since misery loves company, enquiring minds want to know. :) Thanks.
Scoobie: Looks like you're only 4 points away. If you have to adjust, please post all of your numbers if you don't mind. I don't recall any...
Adjusted to the Oct SPX 1370/1385. Overall results on this trade: Initial 1360/1370 credit of $0.60 Debit to close the 1360/1370 of $2.50...
Well, I was forced out of my Oct 1360/1370 bear call (what the hell is this market doing). Still haven't put on an adjusted position as the...
Risk: I remember a post from a while back where you mentioned that we all should be trading time flies among some other strategies. While the...
