Strangled Butterfly: Combining A Strangle & A Butterfly When Trading Nadex Binaries

A strangled butterfly is a more complex butterfly trading strategy. Instead of having one upper, selling contract and one lower, buying contract, there are four contracts. There are two buying contracts and two selling contracts, but they aren’t both upper and lower. They are sandwiched or layered together.

For example, let’s suppose the market is trading at 997.5. All of the following strikes are placed on Nadex binaries expiring at the same time. Here is how the strangled butterfly strategy would be executed:

 

Total for the whole Strangled Butterfly strategy is a net $30 profit potential and $70 risk.

 

If the market expires above 1005, at or below 990, or at or above 995, and below 1000, the total potential profit of $30 is reached.
If the market is above 1000 and below 1005, or at or below 995 but above 990, this trade would lose the total possible loss of $70.

 

Here’s how it breaks down:
If the market closes above 1005 Net +$30
Lose $10 on the 990, make $25 on the 995, lose $75 on 1000, make $90 on 1005
If the market closes above 1000 and below 1005 Net -$70
Lose $10 on 990, make $25 on 995, lose $75 on 1000, lose $10 on 1005
If the market closes at or below 1000 and above 995 Net +$30
Lose $10 on 990, make $25 on 995, make $25 on 1000, lose $10 on 1005
If the market closes at or below 995 and above 990 Net -$70
Lose $10 on 990, lose $75 on 995, make $25 on 1000, lose $10 on 1005
If the market closes at or below 990 Net +$30
Make $90 on 990, lose $75 on 995, make $25 on 1000, lose $10 on 1005
