IWM 191/186 Put Credit Spread - Apr 29th
Put Credit Spread
Strikes: 191 short / 186 long
Credit received: 0.51
Max loss = 5.00-0.51 = $449
Hey Everybody! I have not posted a new trade idea since march 10th, due to a combination of life being busy (part time trader) and the fact that I really wasn't sure where to place my trades with current market conditions. Unfortunately this has lead to my portfolio having 0 positions, so I have been itching to get a position on to generate some returns. Might not be the best solution, but a small position to keep me interested won't hurt that much if it goes against me.
Rationale for this trade:
1. IWM seems to have found another range here from 192 to 209. I like to play these ranges when I can enter into a position that meets return requirements (10% Return on margin) and also provides a significant margin of error or entry point. In this case, the short leg at 191 puts me just outside this range, and paid enough to enter the trade.
Trade Management:
My normal rule is -200% of credit received stoploss or 50% take profit, given that we are currently at the top of this range, if we move back down towards my strike I will likely take this off earlier and look to reset once we show signs of upwards strength.
