Modest profits, but with low risk?

IV's are down, and falling..seems like it could work but watch out for a volatility spike...

Just be prepared to defend..

It was trading around 39 ticks when OP posted it..
now around 24 ticks..

15 ticks in one month is ok...

For the most part I do.
and futures spreads..

Trading has been pretty good of late though I got whipsawed in a few spreads last week.
