Thursday's Outcomes

I opened an iron condor on NKE timed to coincide with the earnings announcement.  See "NKE: Iron condor, volatility rules".

I opened a bull position on IWM. See "IWM: Bull call spread, channel rules".

As part of a project to test variations on my volatility strategy, I analyzed a theoretical trade on IWM, one not involving any money. See "Paper Trade: IWM".
