Greeks.Live Community Briefing: Market sentiment is generally bearish, and hawkish strategies may perform better than iron condor strategies.

According to Deep Tide TechFlow news on March 19, the current market sentiment is generally bearish, with several traders holding put options and expecting a significant market fall. At the same time, some users are holding high cash positions waiting for a second bottom, particularly following the price area of SOL 115 dollars.

The community is hotly discussing the difference between the Iron Eagle strategy and the regular Eagle strategy:

The Iron Eagle strategy is a seller strategy, mainly earning from reduced volatility and theta time value.

The essence of this strategy is to sell options combinations, characterized by relatively thin profits but lower margin requirements, making it more suitable to enter in a high volatility environment and wait for the volatility to decrease.

Some users suggest that 4 call options can be used to construct a profit and loss curve similar to that of an iron condor, but this would change the essence of the strategy, turning it into a buyer's strategy that pays a premium upfront and hopes for a decrease in volatility;

The community suggests that traders should choose suitable strategies based on current market skew changes. For example, in the case of recent increases in volatility skew, a bullish strategy may perform better than an iron condor strategy.
