Yeah, l didn't check to see what strikes were offered or what prices. I would never consider, no liquidity to get the needed pricing. Check out something like this in the SPX in the weekly options. Sell the straddle/the call and the put at the same strike (not recommending) and buy the wings/the call and put to limit the risk of the straddle. Your risk is limited to the difference between the strikes less the premium received. You can reverse the process if your expecting a move outside the wings by expiration but not sure which way.
Just take the range of possible prices for the underlying to figure out what your 4 sided spread nets out to at expiration vs your initial premium when you opened the position.

Butterfly Spread, neutral option spreading to increase your probabilities over a wider range of prices.
