Rolling options spreads is a challenging task. Many times, I roll due to expectations or my fear, and it ends up being a mistake, like the last trade I opened a few days ago, and it was a too-soon roll. When trading SPX, I usually sell Iron Condors. I started trading extremely conservative strikes (1 Continue reading →
The SPX Crumbs Strategy Is Working!
I started trading an SPX Crumbs Strategy and developing it into other instruments such as individual stocks and futures. And it is working. I still deal with the old SPX trades that got me into trouble, but I am slowly eliminating them. It will take time, but I am confident. In the meantime, I trade Continue reading →
November – December 2023 SPX put credit spreads trading review
Our SPX Crumbs Strategy works great so far. I hope it will continue like that for years to come. September was a volatile market. After a strong rally since the end of the bear market in October 2022, the market pulled back. Our strategy sustained that pullback. We made good money even when the market Continue reading →
September – December 2023 Investing and Trading Report
Four months are behind us, and they were successful. We had a rough time in September, but the markets started rallying again, and our investing and trading performed great.

Our Crumbs strategy still worked despite today’s selloff
Last Friday, the market jumped up and broke above what I thought was a rollover pattern. If the breakout was legit, it would make it a consolidation. But today, the market sold off and erased all Friday’s gains. Despite that, our Crumbs strategy worked. But on Friday, it all looked like we were going higher. Continue reading →

The narrative often revolves around risk, the gamble of losing money, and the unsuitability for the average investor. However, these cautionary tales are often regurgitated without personal experience, stemming from a reluctance to step outside conventional investment wisdom. Continue reading →

How to start trading options
On social media like Facebook, Reddit, or Twitter, I keep finding this question all the time: “How to start trading options.” And it can be intimidating to start trading options if you are new to them. Where to start? What to do? Recently, I found a question from one Redditor saying that he read a Continue reading →
September – October 2023 SPX put credit spreads trading review
I was busy with many things last two months to report our SPX trading and today I am going to report both months I missed – our SPX trading in September and October 2023. Many things happened during these two months. I switched trading strategy once again as the previous ones didn’t work well to Continue reading →
August 2023 $100 Challenge account review
August was a horrible month for our Challenge account. We lost a significant net-liq value due to the correction. One part of the losing strike this month was due to REIT stocks which we are accumulating in our portfolio, namely MPW, and these stocks were hammered this year (not just the MPW but almost all Continue reading →
