*** How To Crash Proof An Iron Condor Trade ***

This month we put on an ‘Iron Bug’ version of the Iron Condor.

This is a version of the Iron Condor that we sometimes use during a wild market - as it provides a nice layer of protection against big losses (click the links above to see a similar trade during Octobers big crash)

What’s so interesting about this type of Iron Condor Trade is that if it was used in a portfolio margin account (an account that some brokers provide to their clients that bases a trades required margin on ACTUAL RISK in the trade) - the return on this trade = +24% against required margin - where if it was put on in a regular margin account: +5.1% (which is still a great 1 month return in our opinion!)

*** THE CRASH PROOF IRON CONDOR TRADE? ***

*** THE CRASH PROOF IRON CONDOR TRADE? ***

Oct. 10, 2008

* THE CRASH PROOF IRON CONDOR TRADE * - Who cares if the market crashes? This Iron Condor seems to be able to withstand ANYTHING. During last months crash when I had this ‘Crash Proof Iron Condor’ Trade on - here’s what happened…

Ever since I started trading Iron Condors I always wondered how one would fare if a ‘Real’ Market Crash occured. For Iron Condor traders, other than a huge gap, a fast moving crash is just about the worse thing that can happen given the Iron Condors poor Risk / Reward ratio.

Last month is the closest thing I’ve experienced first hand to a crash (I think most would call it a crash) - and the ‘Crash Proof’ Iron Condor Position we had on did REMARKABLY well to say the least.

This Iron Condor (Click Here) is a version of the trade taught in the Iron Condor Strategy Guide. This version of the Iron Condor is used during periods of high volatility - for reasons you are about to see.

Had this Iron Condor trade been placed and managed in the traditional manner - it no doubt would have gotten creamed. Instead - using this particular version of the iron condor - this position actually made around 3 1/2 times the original credit brought in (what was originally expected to make) - in about 2 weeks time. That’s MORE than THREE times the amount of profit we were originally expecting to bring in.

CRASH PROTECTION For IRON CONDOR TRADES

Oct 08 was the closest thing many newer Iron Condor traders have experienced first hand to a crash - and below shows a ‘Crash Protected’ Iron Condors performance during that crash.

This trade is a version of the Iron Condor detailed in the Iron Condor Strategy Guide - which is used during periods of high volatility - for reasons you are about to see.

Had this Iron Condor trade been put on in the traditional manner - it most likely would have gotten creamed as the crash occurred. Instead - using this particular version of the Iron Condor - as shown in the graph below - resulted in around +28% in 2 weeks time - or 3 1/2 times the original credit (what it was originally expected to make).

*** How To Make A Risk Free Guaranteed Profit Option Trade ***

Saturday, December 6th, 2008

New Iron Condor Course, Video Training, Tools, and more - Click Here

Go Here to get the Free Iron Condor Weekly Email Report from OptionBox.co

* How To Make A Risk Free Guaranteed Profit Option Trade *

This month we put on a sample 3 Legged Box Trade showing how a trader can create a ‘risk free - guaranteed profit’ trade regardless of what the market winds up doing.

In the risk graph you can see that at this point no matter what happens in the market, this trade is guaranteed to make a minimum of 6% - in 3-4 weeks time.

It’s impossible for this current trade to lose any money - NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS.

The absolute worst thing that can happen is that it makes a profit of 6%.

Furthermore - if the market tanks, the potential profit SKYROCKETS.

The best part is that this is a simple trade to put on and can be done 5, 10 or even a 100 times
