New Trades

The following Bullish Seagull (Short Put + Long Call + Short Call) positions were established today. All prices include TD commissions.

I got distracted and bought/sold the wrong strike calls on the second SPY trade, which cost me about $30, which is why the credit was less than $100.

Minimum profit if all options are OTM at expiration (i.e above the short put and below the long call).
