Stock / Symbol:Nasdaq 100 / NDX
Option Strategy: [private_monthly]iron condor[/private_monthly]
Trend entry date / price: Apr 17 / $2780
Price at this post: $2881
Reasoning: Our upside stop of 2875 was hit so I'm rolling up the call spread portion of the trade. This adjustment will eat into the potential profits but it's important to mind the risks with credit spreads like iron condors. The resulting Greeks will be: -2.9 Delta, 16.15 Theta, and -45 Vega. The trade's max profit will be reduced from $380 to around $185 or 8.6%.
