Closed: ODAX October 2018 Put Spread

Summary

One day short of two weeks after having opened the trade, the contraction in the Implicit Volatility and a tiny climb in the DAX allowed me to close the Put Spread for about 60% of the maximum profit.

I´m happy that I closed this trade early too (September Option Expiration has not even arrived yet, four and a half weeks still to go for October OpEx) as being in the market during the shortest possible time reduces risks and allows entering new trades from better positions.


Trade Status


After closing the spread, I booked a gain of 109.9€. With that, the current gain since the beginning of the year is 1,65%. DAX 30 index is down 6,2% in the same period of time.

No open position in the portfolio right now. I will be writing about a new long term position using Options at the end of the week.
