A few hours ago I entered the first position of the June expiration cycle:
Here are the details of this trade:

Current positions in the Portfolio:
May RUT 1100/1110/1330/1340 unbalanced Iron Condor
$225 credit, 88% probability of success and 22 days to expiration
June RUT 1130/1140/1340/1350 unbalanced Iron Condor
The trade discussed in this article.
$225 credit, 76% probability of success and 57 days to expiration
I'll continue to trade this market conservatively via unbalanced Iron Condors until we reach an extreme. I spent 35 days without entering new trades and I will continue to not force anything. My next play is an SPX Credit Call spread if the market shoots higher from here and becomes overbought.
