Daily option strategy

O

oilfxpro

Is there a daily option strategy which makes profit 70% of the time?
And when it has losses , it losses a small amount.

I thought about writing the middle , in a combination of butterflies on puts and calls ,with third butterfly after the price has moved to reduce losses.
 
Unimaginable. Your edge loss exceeds the strike-width. Excelsior!

Spot=1.32280

Long 2 of the 13180/13220/13260 call flies from 15.90
Long 2 of the 13200 calls outright from 53.80
Long 2 of the 13300 calls outright from 5.50
Long 2 of the 13200/13250/13300 put flies from 19.10

Out 50bp in edge. I pray for your family this is sim.

I closed 4 middle for a profit , so give me constructive and good advice .I took a directional view , bit amateurish here.

There was little today to volatility to skim the spread.

Now you're net long a ton of calls. My advice is stop trading and hire more code-monkeys.

My view is the price will close above 1.3220 , and my view seems to give me the profit .

C'mon man, you can't possibly think that in the last three hours your problem was volatility. You paid a nickel in edge loss on every single, which equates to twenty cents on the flies alone. Add another nickel on the long call at 1.32.

Time for a new nick.

Now:

Long 2 13180C from 45.40
Long 2 13200C from 53.80
Long 2 13260C from 6.30
Long 2 13300C from 5.5
Long 2 13200/13250/13300 put flies from 19.10

Up $98 USD on the call-fly body offset

You're long 8 calls. Long the put fly neutral to 13250. You're long spot. A lot of spot. You need to short 300k here to get neutral.

If you can't short 300k EUR then cover this crap.

I put in orders to short at 1.3250 , but price did not get there after closing the short calls
 
You're long 300k spot. Your best close within 1sigma is 1.325 due to the fly. Of course you have a runaway long here. Really a foolish position. It's nuts to deal in flies with IG. Then you add insult to injury in covering your 13220 calls. Why? Because you had a small gain on those? It was your only source of short deltas.

Good point .I shouldn't have covered the 1.3220 calls.

Thanks for point out these points.
