I'm not seeing the significance of the system mechanics when analyzing the P&L - how do you look at this differently? To me it's an input - output analysis - i put X $$$ to work - I got Y $$$ back. Would it help to overlay S&P or VIX in the graph - I'm not even seeing much correlation between...

Nope - all stock based pairs trades.

Nope - not you - definitely my user error - should work now via the link - pls let me know if it doesn't - thx for opening btw !!

weight: 175 fitness: A weed/alcohol: not using sleep: B Weekly P&L 6255 - vol came in a lot - obviously the direction didn't match but still a good result.

I grew up in Germany - compared to that Boston roads are awesome :)

weight: 172 fitness: A weed/alcohol: NOT using sleep: A Weekly P&L 13775 - solid week in total with two major down days. Today everything worked (market up, vol down, Friday) but in general things are looking better. Obviously performance is lacking but somehow I think my account lows are in...

weight: 173 fitness: A weed/alcohol: NOT using sleep: A Daily P&L -5901 - had some META trouble but also trouble across the board today. Yearly P&L - 88530 (ouch). At least options trade "normal" again - hope I don't get steamrolled with Apple tonight - as long as it stays above 135 I should...

Friday and Monday have been very brutal - nothing was working. Finished Monday just shy of a 100.000$ loss for the year @-99051. I hope that was the low point. Tuesday and today were better - volatility finally started to show a crack - let's see where this week ends but at least the options...

Was there last week Wed-Sun for the northeastern "parent weekend". Had fun walking the freedom trail and my son was checking out colleges as well. How far out are your hedge puts? I'd assume they're not easy to roll right now with vol being almost 30 and the market not moving much.

thx for the update. My streak continues - nothing is working Lost -3094 this week - today was the worst day -7472. Things that are hard to accept - I'm coming into today short vol, long delta, and it's Friday - so you'd think theta makes a dent. My account moves from long 742 beta weighted SPY...
