What days can you do Iron Condors?


#1

Can you trade iron condors Monday through Friday? I am trying to find an IC tonight (Monday) but there aren’t nay available. Maybe tonight just isn’t a good night for them?

Iron Condors are mostly done around news events. The News calendar will list all of the possible opportunities based on the research Apex has done over many years. http://apexinvesting.net/news-trading/

The premium that is present in the spreads for the Iron Condors is centered around the higher implied volatility surrounding news releases.

I thought those in the news were just for forex pairs. What if I wanted to do one on the TF, YM, or NQ?

Those can be tough, not impossible, but it is definitely something you want to test for yourself before trading live.
