    Thanks for the heads up. Just took some SPX short call spreads off the board (the ones I had allocated to this system trade). 

    Can I ask what options

    Can I ask what options and strike prices you did for those short call spreads? Thanks

    Matt, I probably would have picked different strikes and expiration if I knew it was going to be such a short trade, but I still managed to pull about 9% ROC out of it.

    The short strike is 16 delta, which is a little bit more than 1 standard deviation....so it's just outside the expected move for the time period in question (45 days, in this case).
