Calendar Options Adjustment Alert: RTH June/July Double-Calendar (Adjustment #3)
Condor Options (June 11th, 2008) Writes:
Despite having been burned by last week’s colossal head-fake, we were hoping to avoid re-adjusting our RTH double-calendar—but Friday’s drop of 2.7 times the ETF’s one-day standard deviation was not a good sign. On Monday RTH fell through its 50-day moving average and closed just pennies below it. After bouncing off the 200-day MA yesterday, RTH is down again this morning and trading below our theoretical break-even. We’re once again approaching our maximum loss, so we’re making the following adjustment:
-2 RTH July 100 call +2 RTH June 100 call for a net credit of $0.80;
+2 RTH July 95 put -2 RTH June 95 put for a net debit of $1.55.
Don’t forget that two contracts here represent all of our position (e.g., if we had 4 contracts at the 100 strike, we’d be rolling all 4 of them). Now we have a single calendar put spread at the 95 strike. Normally
