=====
The iron condor options strategy is one of the most popular options trading strategies, especially among traders who prefer selling options with limited risk and want a neutral market outlook.
Selling iron condors (referred to as a “short iron condor”)is a market-neutral strategy that profits when the stock price remains within a range, which makes it a high probability trading strategy that requires no predictions in regards to which way the stock price will move.
A short iron condor is constructed by selling a call spread and selling a put spread simultaneously.
Since selling a call spread is a bearish strategy (profits when the stock price remains below the call spread) and selling a put spread is a bullish strategy (profits when the stock price remains above the put spread), combining the two into a short iron condor results in a neutral position (no directional bias).
