Piper's Picks
A BEARISH signal, 3/5 strength, was generated around 10:40am 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 -- 2 total units!
SPY Return: +$13 (+100%) per $87 signal cost
QQQ Return: +$12 (+100%) per $88 signal cost
Total Return: +$25 (+100%) -- This could easily be scaled per $175 signal cost
Thicc Matt's Personal Trades
Trade One: 30 SPX 5580 Puts (Scalp Strategy)
This trade half good and half bad. The good part was the reasoning for the entry and the discipline to exit when required. The bad part was the size. I played way too big for no reason. My greed cost me. I went long at an average of $5.97 and pulled the ripcord at $2.00/ea -- This means my realized loss was $11,910.
Trade Two: 15 SPX 5610/5615 Put Credit Spreads (Revenge Trade)
After taking a big "L", I made the silly decision to chase the Piper signal way after is posted. I wanted to mitigate my first losing trade with no solid technical reasoning. To no one's surprise, it made the situation worse. I sold at $0.90/ea and bought them all back at $1.90/ea -- This means my realized loss was $1,500.
Trade One Return: -$11,910
Trade Two Return: -$1,500
Total Return: -$13,410 (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!
