I am an active trader who primarily sells Iron Condors on various indexes.

I concentrate on the SPX, SPY, OEX, MNX, SOX, NDX and the DJX.

Do any of you follow a similar path? Do you have any tips, tricks or insights that can make this even more profitable?

Thanks,

Regards,

I make between 10 and 30+ percent on the money I must tie up to get the credit. I like these indexes because I can sell far out of the money and buy very far out of the money and realize a good credit at very low risK. Typically, there is less than a 30% chance that either end (put or call) will finish in the money.

Regards,
