Options Income Spreads

By Johnny M Junior


Since the Iron Condor is a negative Vega strategy, this should be the right time to use this income option spread. But what is negative Vega anyway? If you do not know, then you might want to watch some free videos on the Option Greeks that can be found on the San Jose Options' website. Anyway, now that the volatility has been on a decline and the markets have become a calmer place to be, this makes it much better to manage this option spread.

Most of us Condor traders have been making money over the last few months with little effort or adjustments at all. It is so great, at times, with this kind of income spread. There are times that we have very few adjustments to make. If the underlying simply trends stays within a tight price range, then the Condor works well and cash flows the market almost each day.

It is a great thing making money this way. It is very low stress, and at times you will have a steady income. This is one time that the stock market will give us the chance to really enjoy our option strategies and without the stress it is a great way to make a living.

I have had a chance to learn a better, different, more cautious way to trade Iron Condors. While most option teachers have a more aggressive approach to this trading strategy, I have learned a safer method by studying with San Jose Options. I can sleep in rest assured that my options portfolio is not being exposed to high risk. While other option traders have to get up at the beginning of the stock market each day in case they have to make an adjustment.

I have been easily making 10% on this new way of trading for the last few months. Believe me; I haven't had to make many adjustments at all. I can put the trade on and let the trade and my money work for me. The way I used to trade, I was making several adjustments, but with my new trading technique, the market never hits my adjustment points, not one single time. I have to say, I am really enjoying trading with the stock market now.
