Great Trade!!
As for the IC recommendations from the News Trading Calendar, they are meant to be taken at face value. If you can find the recommended setup, just enter the trade and hopefully profit from it.
Kinda like watching paint dry.
If it turns out ICs are something you want to keep doing. Here is a great idea from another post… https://forum.apexinvesting.com/t/back-in-the-saddle-doing-iron-condors/4175
Ive been demoing just doing the NQ for the past 2 weeks to great success. Profits ranging from $22 to $136 per contract. All but one of the times I exited before expiration.
