I just finished this video on broken wing butterfly’s.
This is a option spread created like a regular “Butterfly” spread, except skip one strike to create an unbalanced spread. You buy one ITM call, you sell two OTM calls and you skip a strike and buy one OTM call. The Strike prices are one dollar apart and you receive a 0.30 credit, thus the maximum loss is 0.70. This is a trade made during high volatility, so the prices fall as volatility falls and time decay further reduces the value of the positions. This creates a good opportunity through a high probability trade with very little risk to the down side and a small chance of a lottery ticket type win of the spread between the strike one point, plus the credit.
The option trade diagram looks like this:
