What it does

Enables bearish pair put spreads as a structure for premium engines (mechanical, contraction). A bearish pair put spread is a defined-risk put credit spread positioned on the lower side, collecting premium with the expectation the underlying stays above the short strike. Used as part of the iron condor's put side or as a standalone spread when only the put side has rich premium.

When to change it

Leave ON. Turn OFF only if you want to restrict to pure iron condors and call-side structures only.

Safe range

ON or OFF.

Example

Market has a bullish lean. Contraction engine enters a bearish pair put spread on the bottom side only, collecting elevated put premium after a selloff.
