OPENING: XOP SEPT 21ST 40/44 SHORT STRANGLE ...
Aggiornato
... for a 1.31/contract credit.
Probability of Profit: 62%
Max Profit: 1.31 ($131)/contract
Max Loss/Buying Power Effect: Undefined/6.68 ($668)
Break Evens: 38.69/45.31
Delta: 3.65
Theta: 2.75
Notes: Giving myself more room to be wrong with a short strangle in the September cycle. Implied volatility remains so-so here at 24.7% (near the bottom of its 52-week range), so it might be more worthwhile to wait for higher implied. That being said, I'm basically working XOP as an "all weather core position."

I probably should have just covered the Oct 39/42 short strangle in profit, but rolled out for the realized gain instead to the Nov 38/41 for a .72/contract credit with a scratch at 3.16. Stuck with her now ... . Lol.Trade attivo
