Expiration date: September 16, 2016

I am old enough to know that when the market offers me a gift, I should take it.
So I am going to take the one-day, 8.45% profit on the long position I picked up over night in the Treasury bond market.
That gets me off the risk hook and gives me dry powder going into the September 20 Fed meeting on interest rates.
This way, I can leg into the trade one more time on the next downward swoon in bond prices.
This means that 15 OUT OF THE LAST 16 TRADE ALERTS HAVE BEEN PROFITABLE, a win rate of 93.75%!

The best execution can be had by placing your bid for the entire spread in the middle market and waiting for the market to come to you. The difference between the bid and the offer on these deep in-the-money spread trades can be enormous.
Don?t execute the legs individually or you will end up losing much of your profit. Spread pricing can be very volatile on expiration months farther out.
Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:
Sell 37 September, 2016 (TLT) $133 calls at????.???$7.10
Buy to cover short 37 September, 2016 (TLT) $136 calls at?.$4.15
Net Cost:????????????????..??.?.....$2.95
Profit: $2.95 - $2.72 = $0.23
(37 X 100 X $0.23) = $851 or 8.45% profit in one trading day.
