Day 30
Foolish Trader Journal, Day 30.
The market trended down throughout the day and ended lower than previous day's close. SPY moved down by ~1.7% and QQQ moved down by ~2.1%.
Trading Update
- I closed all of my QQQ Call Credit Spreads since they already returned >40% of the original premium in less than 2 full trading days.
- I immediately re-deployed the capital into an NVDA 4/17 $105 Straddle. The ∆-s were 70/30.
Portfolio Status
The account ended slightly lower in line with the market, lower by -1% today. My account value continues to be lower than I had started this journey.
Here is the status of my open trades at the end of the day today.

Here is a Year to date view of the portfolio.

Trade History
Here are the last 20 trades I made.

Speculation Zone
I think I have done reasonably well for the first 30 days. The overall market has seen steep declines, I have managed to lose close to what the big indices are losing, and not yet gone bankrupt.
I am trying to get intro trades that can give me a higher-than-usual upside if the market appreciates in either direction. Wish me luck!
