  • Walking Through a Profitable Iron Condor Trade
    2022/10/21

    In this weekly update from 10/7/2022, I walk through an Iron Condor trade that I put on 9/1/2022 and managed until closing it a few days before the 10/7/2022 expiration date.  This trade was a success, making $1477 in just over 30 days.  I go through my thought process on how I considered adjustments along the way, and ultimately how it was closed out for a nice profit.

  • Lessons Learned from a Poorly Managed Iron Condor Trade
    2022/09/15

    Most people don't share their losing trades.  In this video, I talk about a trade that I badly mismanaged.  I have metrics that I use to adjust trades when the market moves against us.  In this trade, I tried to roll a call credit spread up and out, but I wasn't aggressive enough in rolling it, so I ended up having to take a pretty significant loss.  I point out several things to do differently in the future to stay out of this type of situation.

  • Two types of traders - which type are you?
    2022/07/20

    In this episode, I discuss the two types of trading mentality - trend following vs mean reversion.  Neither is right or wrong, but they are very different.  Figuring out which direction you lean can help you determine what type of trades may work better for you and what type of system you should design.
