Piper's Picks
A BEARISH signal, 4/5 strength, was generated at 12:05pm ET by Piper. The signal was used with various advanced options strategies to score (don't worry, I'll teach you every aspect of the strategy).
Both of these trades hit if held until close -- 3 total units!
SPY Return: +$10 (+100%) per $190 signal cost
QQQ Return: +$26 (+100%) per $74 signal cost
Total Return: +$36 (+100%) -- This could easily be scaled per $264 signal
Thicc Matt's Personal Trades
Trade One: 45 x SPX 5580/5575 Put Credit Spread (Scalp Strategy Trade)
I think I got a little too arrogant due to my success last week -- I wasn't able to control my own hubris. I inexplicably threw on a position before any of my signals or indicators fired. I was overly confident for no reason, and I paid the price. Trade One was a bullish put credit spread that had an average entry of $2.26/ea and an average exit of $3.55 -- This means Trade One was a realized loss of $5,805.
Trade Two: 50 x SPX 5565/5570 Call Credit Spread (Revenge Trade)
Instead of being calm and reasonable, I made the stupid decision to revenge trade. I made the fatal error of sizing up and quickly switching directions after my first trade. Trade Two was a bearish call credit spread that had an average entry of $2.90/ea and an average exit of $3.20 -- This means Trade Two was a realized loss of $1,500.
Trade Three: 60 x SPX 5575/5570 Put Credit Spread (Fully on Tilt Trade)
Trade Three was a perfect example of me going fully on tilt and getting whipped (again) by the Market Gods. This trade was a bullish put credit spread that had an average entry of $2.65/ea and an average exit of $3.90 -- This means Trade Three was a realized loss of $7,500.
Trade One Return: -$5,805
Trade Two Return: -$1,500
Trade Three Return: -$7,500
Total Return: -$14,805 (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!
