In fact, when you use the strategy like everyone else, problems can quickly escalate.
As you know, the Iron Condor is a relatively simple strategy in concept. You place credit-spread positions above resistance and below support. That way the price has a range you can trade within until expiration.

The truth is, the Iron Condor strategy is more complicated than most “experts” care to admit.
