Updating more than 2 years later. See I added a call: 12/13/17 AddCall SPY $266.38 1 jan19 266C convBackS $3.10 $2.77
--copied from log sez spent $310 on adding a 266 call when SPY went up to 266.38 with a new scratch at 2.77 (note: this converts the broken wing butterfly to a back spread). SPY went up to 268.32 and closed 5 days later for net profit after expenses of 49.23 (this was a one-off / single contract). Did more trading back then and learned a lot but overall my account size was reduced through that period.
