yeah got rid of it below 702 in the shares. I'm also bearish, we might have left some money on the table, but as you said; hit singles. What's the SPX play? A journal trade, or are you committed in MA? I had a SEP28 20/50/80 Fly on which I sold into the nascent rally. 1450 might be a...

Out of the AAPL Fly entirely at 6.30. I got in at 5.20. Performance on your journal portfolio should be good.

Haha yeah those look solid. There goes 700. Still have a 5-lot on. I'm looking at a VIX/SPY trade currently. But vol still looks like a sale.

Still holding half my position in AAPL. I concur with you on SPX, but it doesn't want to cooperate. I have some 1450 flies on, up slightly, but giving it back now.

Do you still think a touch of neutrality is in order?

MA looking good. I am probably going to exit the AAPL fly as I don't want to risk a rally.

Looking to exit the AAPL fly.

Short 1451.75

Scratched the SPX fly for now, don't want to risk a rally here. Needing AAPL to come in.

Looking to add to it here, around 29.75 risk. Also looking at SPX SEP28 20/50/80 Fly at under 12.00

I still like this one. Around 5.10 mid.

Can trim some deltas by adding to the Oct 450 Fly.

Yeah, it's not something that I am too sure of.

Same situation as last week. Not confirmed yet. I still say 10/23, they have been doing 4th Tuesday lately. Nov IV is currently about 3.5 points higher than Oct.

How much is currently at risk in the position. Iron is a credit of 20.70 right now. So risk is 29.30 (50-20.70). Width of the strikes (50) minus the credit of the spread. The price of the call or put fly would be the risk, as it's a debit.

Will do. Just edited the post.

In the MA Fly (iron) @ 29.40 Closed the AAPL 685 Fly @ 17.30. I guess we should've waited as it's now at 18.25. Closed the GOOG 700 Fly @ 15.80. Now at 16.25. Not having good luck with fills today. Currently looking at an SPX Fly neutral to 1450.

IB is probably your best bet for execution. TOS has a nice platform, but comms are too high (can negotiate based on volume). I use hoadley and livevol pro for analysis. Hoadley's pretty slick, but nothing one can't build himself. Livevol is good for vol analysis. They actually just launched...

Yeah, no kidding.

In a USO 32/37/42 Fly. Vol is way bid.
