Return/risk不是很高。
Hi Quantum,
Great figure for more disscussion.
The issue of R/R has to come back to the structure of CS. CS takes advantge of theta, so its delta is kept nearly neutral, which doesn't mean complete neutral. 1st trade 95PUT is close to delta neutral, but with a little bearish bias. If or only if R/R is the only point we concern, a higher R/R can be structured in the frame of CS. BUT it will involve other greeks, like delta, etc. When the greeks shifts, other strategies can be made much better than CS. Baseline, CS is pretty close to market neutral, and can be made so versatile to suit many market conditions.
As an example for beting delta, HBI is very bullish with a correction, trading at $34.5. OTM 40 CALL Jun/July CS gives R/R=4.5. There are more cases like this, certainly about other greeks.
Happy trading. IB
