The new spread will use a new strategy type (BB).

The Balanced Strip Butterfly spread will represent a differential spread consisting of three equally spaced legs – the close and late expirations of a Balanced Strip Butterfly on one side of the spread and twice the amount of middle expirations of a pack on the other side (1: 2:1).

The spread is currently available for customer testing in the New Version.
