The market is not good for our Challenge account so far. We started aggressively and had to scale down significantly when the valuation reset hit Wall Street. We are significantly down now, but setbacks are part of any trading & investing. This is a long-term investing and trading program, and we are determined to invest Continue reading →



2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 21
Last week I didn’t trade SPX much, just tried to stay afloat. I mostly rolled the trades away and created box trades. That is a trade where a short call has the same strike as the long put and the short put has the same strike as the long call. This way the structure resembles Continue reading →
2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 20
I expected 2022 year to be slow and not as profitable trading as 2021 but what is happening this year is outstanding. Nevertheless, our SPX trading is doing well so far although it is very difficult trading. I am adjusting trades to get busted again. This is one of the reasons why as an investor Continue reading →
2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 19
This selling is becoming frustrating. Our SPX trading strategy held relatively well, mostly because I didn’t trade much. All I did was sit tight and manage trades that needed adjustment. I only opened Friday trade and used the collected credit to help offset another trade that needed adjustment. Next week, I will be doing the Continue reading →
2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 18
For 18 weeks ur SPX PCS strategy performed well while the market was selling off. It was not an easy journey this year. When I started this strategy at the end of 2021 I hoped for a better start and large profits. The market had a different opinion. Despite heavy selling, we finished up by Continue reading →
April 2022 $100 Challenge account review
In April we didn’t trade much as we are building equity in the account after we had to close our positions at a loss. It is a part of the game that we will time to time take a loss. But we have time on our side and we will take leveraged positions to grow Continue reading →
2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 17
Our SPX PCS strategy finished up by 1.71% while SPX lost -3.27%. Last week was a horrible week. As pundits and media say, it was the worst week since 2008. There seems to be no end to selling pressure. Our account performed well but I do not feel happy about it because it was very Continue reading →
2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 16
Our SPX PCS strategy finished up by 24.27% while SPX lost -2.75%. Last week was a horrible week. The market lost over 5% in two days based on fear of the FED raising rates “too aggressively”. But our account was up significantly. But there is nothing much to celebrate. All I was doing was adjusting Continue reading →
2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 15
Last week,the SPX PCS strategy finished down by -0.50% while SPX lost -2.13%. It was because we didn’t trade much. Our strategy is directional and we trade to the upside. When the market is bad, we stay away. From time to time, we take a bearish position (credit call spread) but in this market, it Continue reading →
2022 SPX put credit spreads trading review – week 14
Last week,the SPX PCS strategy finished up by +5.87% while SPX lost -1.27%. Our overall SPX account is up +123.11% since the beginning of this program. However, we still have -$3,035 in unrealized losses. At some point we will have to work hard to offset those losses. We are also slightly adjusting our trading strategy Continue reading →
