So, I'm much more confident today, than I was yesterday. In fact, I was hoping that those higher prices would hold up to the open.

If I'm serious about building size and making (or losing) some money, then I should start trading 2-5 lots with ES options. Playing around with this position has been important to me, and I took it seriously, but it's now kinda a waste of time.
 
Some self-criticism in order. Rookie mistake. Front run the signal. Bad habit. KISS.

What I did right was admit my mistake and hold out. Some redemption, there. But basically turns a great trade (the call sales) into a mediocre one, at best.

The Bible says, "The truth shall set you free." Not getting preachy here, but that is universally true. If you can't see, or you ignore your mistakes, then you'll never get ahead - especially in trading - everything else, too.

Admittedly, that was supposed to be a scalp using options. Trying to get SPY off the book.

The dominant feature of the trade is still the ratio spread. That may change soon.
