    Trading credit spreads

    You know that the tastytrade way is not to use a stop loss on defined loss trades since the probability of touch is twice the probability of ending up ITM. Do you have any objective results that indicate your approach is better?

    Conservative Options Trades

    Hey Dan, You forgot to include the expectation calculation for the UPS trade: Prob = 81.7% Expectation = .817(48) - .123(452) - .064(226) = 39.2 - 55.6 - 14.46 = -30.8 (You're welcome :) )
