Use Nadex Spreads To Set Up Iron Condors

To trade this event, Nadex Spreads can be used to set up numerous Iron Condors for great profit potential. For an Iron Condor strategy, buy a lower spread and sell an upper spread. The ceiling of the bought lower spread should be where the then current underlying market is trading, and the floor of the sold upper spread should be where the then current underlying market is trading. The chart below shows the Nadex market to trade, the time to enter the trade, and the expiration time for the spreads. Your profit potential should be what is listed in the chart, or more. If there are no spreads available with the listed profit potential or more, then there is no trade.

The rate decision often will already be reflected in the market so it can be overshadowed by the FOMC statement which focuses on the future. It mentions commentary on economic conditions, the outlook, and insight into the future changes of the rates. This is the information that traders analyze and what influences them.
