IWM Iron Condor Result

I'm worried that IWM can continue to move south so I have removed some of the risk on the put side. The call side does not look threatened so I just leave it there.

BTC 3 Feb 39/37 put for $0.20

With this adjust, I can let price move to $40 before I start losing money. Also, I placed a GTC order to buy back the remaining 2 contract for $0.10.

IWM Iron Condor

On Dec 31, placed a IWM iron condor.
STO 5 Feb 39/37 put spread credit $0.20
STO 5 Feb 59/61 call spread credit $0.21
Potential 25% return on risk

With todays down action it made the iron condor centered almost perfectly. Just now have to sit back and wait for time to diminish away.
