A week before expiration it looks like the market is not going to erupt... It's a good time for a butterfly strategy on SPY with a low risk:

- buy 1 call 99 at price 2.51
- sell 2 calls 100 at price 1.78
- buy 1 call 101 at price 1.13

Total cost 8$ (+ commissions), potential profit 92$.
Risk is limited to cost.
