Short Iron Condor

Description	
	The Short Iron Condor another volatility strategy and is the opposite of a Long Iron
	Condor, which is a rangebound strategy. The Short Iron Condor differs from the
	Short Iron Butterfly in that the middle strikes are separated.
	   Short iron condors arent particularly popular because they produce a net debit
	and offer very small returns compared to straddles and strangles with only slightly
	less risk.
	   The Short Iron Condor involves putting together a Bear Put Spread and a higher
	strike Bull Call Spread. The higher strike put has a lower strike than the lower strike
	call to create the Short Condor shape. The resulting position is profitable in the event
	of a big move by the stock. The problem is that the reward is seriously capped and
	is typically dwarfed by the potential risk if the stock fails to move.
