Risking 3c to net max 45c and I will usually put on enough so that I can take most off if I see maybe 20c and let some run to expiry for glory

sell in May go away? I am looking for a May rally in US equities with spoos up >2,800 and maybe even ath by early June, then a June swoon. Looking for stepwise entries into SPY bearish puts post Jun FOMC....the Jun29 $263/260/257 fly is 16c...step 2 in the bullish May scenario is to get into a $3 bull put vert for a few pennies more before the FOMC, selling the $257 and buying more $263 when they are cheaper - looking for a $3 spread for net 30c...

...watching ^TNX tho, bumping up to 3.0% again, credit volatility & the impending (hawkish?) Fed could steepen the path for equities....

the $272 callie worth about 43c now, with SPY @ $272.20 - I sold for 36c when it was around $272.65...now watch it pin $272 to close? No regrets, though - it's a real challenge to hold out for more when you have a sure 10+ bag in hand...
