The James Bond Trade vs. Investing in the S&P 500
The Greek Delta
The bot will send you a message via Telegram as soon as it has opened the trade.
Incl. OptionStrat Link.
The Greek Delta
The initial delta is about 5-6
In a rising market, the delta decreases.
In a falling market, the delta increases. Since the trade then becomes bullish and no longer matches our market opinion when entering, we have built in a stop loss at -1% of the underlying.
Notice
Be careful when modeling calendar spreads in OptionStrat.
It should be noted that the volatility is different for the two options' maturities.
