Saving grace

#SPX0dte Sold 6770/6800-6805/6830 condors for 9.95, BTC for 6.50. That took my small loss for the week and made it a small gain. Short trade wins after all. Downside Warning was canceled yesterday which hopefully means a period of calm. I think these last five weeks where I have struggled and abstained started right after a calm period ended and a wild one began. The wild swings began 14 trading days before the China tweet that dumped the $SPX. It’s like the market knew it was coming. And nine days after that VIX is back down and I get a calm Friday afternoon to save the week.

That said, I’m not going back to business as usual. Still going to be cautious.
