I think you need some more tools. Instead of doing Spread Strangles, look at the Iron Condor trades on the news plan. Iron Condors are for ranging markets or for a move and then a pull back which can often happen with news.

For spreads check out this webinar Darrell did. This is for slow moving markets no news required.

if you are not an Elite paying member, you may want to consider doing a 30 day trial, learn the Power Plays in addition to the above and take your trading to the next level with Nadex.

RISK DISCLOSURE: Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE DISCLOSURE: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp difference between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot befully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
