Re: Week 23 // Final Tally // Up 63% With Thu-Fri Trades // 87% OverallNow that my venting is done with, here comes the math for this week's wins and losses.

Percent G/L = +1.77/1.71 = +104% Trade 4 G/L = +.85 -.15 + .72 - .15 = +1.27 (MU = 1.65) Percent G/L = +1.27/1.65 = +77% Trade 5 G/L = +.75 - .09 + .57 - 1.13 + .62 + .75 -.12 = +1.35 (MU = 1.75) Percent G/L = +1.35/1.75 = +77% Trade 6 G/L = +1.02 - 1.20 + .66 - 1.02 = -.54 (MU = .98) Percent G/L = -.54/.98 = -55% For just the 4 trades recommended this week (ignoring my rollover trades), we have: Total G/L = + 1.77 + 1.27 + 1.35 - .54 = +3.85 (MU = 1.71 + 1.65 + 1.75 + .98 = 6.09) Percent G/L = + 3.85/6.09 = +63%Adding in my carryover gains/losses: Total G/L = +3.85 + 1.04 + .28 = +5.17 Percent G/L = +5.17/6.09 = 85% Going into next week I have carried over: Short 18 Jan AMZN 1640/1642.50 Call Spread Short 18 Jan AMZN 1640/1637.50 Put Spread Short 18 Jan BA 345/347.50 Call Spread Conclusion: This week was great. It would have been perfect had it not been for the massacre on Trade 6 (NVDA) when the Algos burned me on the call side. I should have realized what was going on and NOT reentered the short call spread (even though the thesis was correct but the broker risk turned it into a bigger loss). I hope some of you made some money this week! Cheers. |
