Yesterday we changed the butterfly into a calendar. A calendar is a lazy man's trade. It doesn't need much attention intra-day. If anyone is interested in trading more with options, I would really recommend starting with calendars. With a proper selection of the underlying and a correct execution, its is relatively easy to bank 10-15% on capital @ risk over a 30-60 day period. In the future I am happy to go more in depth.
During the day I had an order to enter a new fly 750/800/850. I had priced my order sharply, so in the end no-takers, which is okay. I have a couple of days to see how the market develops.
