I want to take out a small insurance policy through following SPY butterfly spread:- Buy to open 1x April $104 puts
- Sell to open 2x April $109 puts
- Buy to open 1x April $114 puts
I fully expect the trade to expire worthless and lose money. But, having this can at least assure me a good night sleep. I just filled the order for $0.90 debit.
I am reluctant to initiate any new long positions with S&P near 1150. Though I like CTXS, MU, ETN, NUVA, RF and a few others. I want to see high volume breakout of S&P above 1150 before I jump in.
Good luck!
