Hello, Space Traveler!
TODAY'S LOSS: -$1,800
My posted, REAL-TIME TRADE WAS NOTHING BUT GREED! For real, am I the worst trader on this side of the Mississippi?! My target was hit, but I decided to not take it because I was being greedy. A classic trading mistake that is as old a time. I overstayed my welcome and paid the price. The loss is fine relative to my gains on the week, but it's still frustrating to make such a stupid mistake.

SPY Return: +$50 (+100%) per $150 signal cost

Thicc Matt's Personal Trades
10 x SPX 5430/5425 Put Credit Spread (Scalp Strategy Trade)
As shown, losses were taken on at $4.20/ea from $2.40/ea. This means my realized loss was -$1,800. To be clear, the scalp would have 100% workedif I stuck with my original target. This issue was me, not the system.
Total Return: -$1,800 (before fees)

SPY missed & QQQ hit
The Trump-China-Trade announcement from the NYT knocked me out of my position. The CCS's were sold at $1.80/ea and I was forced to buy them backl at $4.40 -- This means my realized loss was $3,120 :(
The hedge did exactly what hedge plays are meant to do. It balanced me out! These PCS's were sold at $0.85/ea and expired worthless -- THIS MEANS MY REALIZED GAIN WAS $2,975!
