Feb Monthly Returns +6.7%


This month, even with a 1 win: 2 loss ratio, I am up 6.7% because of my remaining open trades as seen in the chart above.

I have started to incorporate some calendars, a butterfly, and a short straddle this month to learn some of the different non-speculative (except for the straddle) trades. Non-spec. trades such as butterflies, diagonals and calendars are what should be building the majority of a portfolio. Speculative ones such as verticals, and straddles should be used for less than 20% of the portfolio.
