Ouch

Wow, it’s been an interesting couple of weeks.

My options trading account is about breakeven for the year. My automated swing trading system is down about 13% for the month and 7% for the year. I really hate drawdowns, especially after just hitting an equity high. But that’s how this stuff works. The swing system historically has drawdowns as high as 20% so we’re not that close yet. If we keep going down then I might need to reevaluate but until then, I’ll just keep taking the signals and trading as usual.
