Actually, this is a forum name that I've used for many years in other venues (although I honestly can't remember its significance.) :)

I'm likely going to update this thread each day after the close so that I can update closing prices and latest profit and loss. These are all live trades and I am risking real money with them. I'm also going to add my adjustment points into the trade. I don't necessarily know what...

Thanks for the note hlpsg. It is a very small account so I'm not too worried about major losses and I'll be following it closely. I have my main trading account using the same strategies (not taking the same trades though) so I'm hoping to use it as another source of data to study. BTW, I...

I have a bunch of trades already open and will add them gradually to the thread. The first strategy that I'm focusing on right now is the Iron Condor. It looked a lot simpler when I was first starting out with them, but as I get deeper they are getting more complex. I've developed a...

Hi all, my goal is to generate consistent income via Option Selling strategies (Credit Spreads, Iron Condors, Double Diagonals, etc). I'm relatively new to the option selling scene. I'll be posting my trades and adjustments in the hopes that through documenting and talking about them, I'll...
