Wife's self-directed 401k beat SPX for 2019. No vol-trading, tho.

Nice. Good to keep the wife rich.

Up $1260 since Jan 2. I'll update later with what was traded.

I went into the weekend neutral D on a small SPX position (expiring today) and short a single ES. I am now working a large GOOGL asym combo.

Utilization is $23K but includes some shares.

Up $1,500 from inception and nearly $300 on short GOOGL deltas. Neutral GOOGL at 1380-85.

I added long shares and a bull OTM diagonal to the GOOGL combo. The combo is a Jan10 exp with the diagonal Jan10/17. Terminal BE is 1422ish on the upside. Downside is all gravy.

Weird action today. Staying out until (near) the close. Up $1,500.
