It's important to remember that Iron Condors are neutral trades. Since they are not directional, they do not benefit from the stock moving one way of the other. They instead benefit from time decay and volatility decreasing. As time passes the options will slowly decay making you money over the duration of the trade. A volatility decrease will also cause the options to decrease in value, benefiting you.
To create an iron condor you simply need to build out a short vertical put spread while also building a short vertical call spread. Time decay starts to ramp up around 30-60 days out which is why many options sellers will stick to this time frame. Occasionally, trading shorter time durations around earnings announcements to capitalize on volatility crush.

Do you ever buy options or only sell?
What would you consider to be your favorite strategy? I have been taking an options class for 6 months now. The class is very good but we just do the basics, ( Calls, Puts, & Verticals ) I have been researching many other options. This is the first video where I felt like I had the knowledge and understood the Strategy well enough to give it a shot. Thanks so much

Great job teaching the Iron Condor. It seems to be a very popular strategy. One thing that I didn't see in this video was how to close it out or unwind it with a profit, near or at your 50% profit point? Like you said I would not want to tie my investment up for this long.
I learned more on this video than I did with the TOS techs. Great job.
THAT was an excellent video, and just what I needed. My options fundamentals are good but I just wasn’t getting in tune with TorS for some reason though I was really trying. But your explanation, focused on the A-to-Z of one type of strategy made it seem very easy. I subscribed and can’t wait to see the rest of your videos. I know there is a lot of static noise in this area, but your teaching ability really deserves higher numbers.
this is excellent thank you. !!
Comprehensive and well paced. Good job!
Glad it was helpful!
Great job on explaining Iron Condor.🥰
Excellent!!
You explain/demonstrate great. I learn a lot from you... thanks man
More explanation videos like this, please. For each Options strategy, and spreads.
Outstanding work. Your videos are now my go to. I’m going to binge watch your TOS option videos this weekend 🍿
Thank you!
Thank you for putting this together. It helped a lot, thanks for the tips.
Great video. It would be nice if you also talked about placing stop and limit orders on the Iron Condor.
Excellent explanation! Covered allot in a small amount of time.
Thanks for sharing! Truly enjoyed! ❤
Hi,
What delta should I keep to choose strike price for all 4 legs.
In your example, how much cash would you have to have in your account to cover the number of options that you purchased did you buy 100 which gave you the profit? How many did you buy?
Amazing video 🤙🏽
this was a very very good video... paper trading is saving me from real life nightmares lol
Great explanation, thank you!
Thanks!!
@2:42 why you not getting credit for selling the put ?? confused.
Great video! Thanks!
Please show me how to put stop limit on iron condor. Thx
I’m alittle confused.. if you want the stock to stay put why choose one with high volatility? Cheaper options prices?
How do you close out a Iron condor once you are ready?
Excellent explanation! Regarding multi-leg strategies in general, I learnt it is possible to close positions exiting one leg at a time if you face an illiquid context. Am I right? If so, which would be the preferable order to close each leg? I suppose we should close short legs first just in case of sudden assignment, isn´t it? Your feedback will be highly appreciated.
very interesting!
Great video! I had a question when the options expire, does TD close out your positions or do you have to do it on the last day of expiration?
Thank you. I just tried to put one on. Question do you normally try to get a 1 to 1 risk to reward? Question even with high Open Inst. do these take awhile to get filled? I tried one in my paper account to see how it worked but it did not get filled.
please show me how to close the position
How do you exit the Iron condor at 75% profit? I'm a beginner and I'm nervous about this.
Bro if you have high IV that means the stock might move in a direction making you lose money with the condor.
Well explained video. How do you manage the call or put option it it falls between your short and long legs? Do you take on the assignment?
I’ll just close the spread for whatever it’s worth at expiration. I’m generally trying to avoid any assignments as much as possible
key thing; at the end you just said you get out at 75%, can you close out the whole condor with one click ? or do you have to go through each option ?
Nope, you'll generally want to close the entire spread at once. If you're on the monitor page just right click on the stock ticker then close selected, buy iron condor.
What brokerage are you using in this video?
This one is thinkorswim
why no one actually teaches how to fucking close this things? You are highly regarded for sure.
Could you show delta hedging for an IC?
Absolutely! I’m making a few study overviews first, but I can definitely cover that. Are you mainly interested in seeing how to visually see it on the risk/profile page and utilize various trades to adjust the delta to net neutral?
YOU DID NOT SHOW HOW TO CLOSE THE IRON CONDOR EXAMPLE ............VERY UPSETTING!
