Short strangle on SPY with a short delta bias. The call is at 288 and put at 259. It is offering about 300$ in premium. My leverage on this is about 0.5x (account balance / underlying notional value). This is a somewhat directional play as well as a short premium play.

A few things made this an attractive trade such as the high implied volatility and price having reached a key support level where I hope price stays buoyed while I run out the clock and collect...
