With the high costs and difficulty of trading spreads, when
you write complex spreads, such as butterfly spreads, which involve
three trades in and three trades out, you are in deep trouble.
As a result, whenever anyone mentions such spreads, I am
turned off. In the business we call such spreads, alligator
spreads, for the commissions and slippage will eat you alive.
Alligator spreads look great on paper but rarely work out in
actual trading. Avoid any spread that involves three trades to get
in the position, for if you don’t, you will become a prey of the
alligator.
