    the only thing that flopped was the 20 point target. In 3 trading days there has been only 4 trades taken, out of which 1 is still open. Realised PnL is currently 6.5 points, unrealised ~ 6.41 at the moment. If target is reached on 4 trade that would put the realised PnL just under 20 point mark. ~20 points on 4 trades is not bad in my books. It has not worked out the way I would have wanted to, as I wanted to do more trades and that just wasn't possible.

    Thank you.

    10 units still Short @ 1345.66 average, stop at 1345.50 now

    5 units Long added 1337.75, hedge against the short position

    After the scale out and a hedge added this position has gained a 'no loss, only gain' status, which is the best position for a trader to be in.

  8. Actually is looks like a "no loss, no gain either" status.

    Because as it's currently constructed, for every pt the market falls (not my call today, but anything could happen) you make 1 pt on your Shorts and lose 1 pt on your Longs, and vice-versa if (when) the market rises.

    The position is static as currently constructed, and, well, it actually negates the whole concept of a Live Call by definition.

    By live calls statement, there was no promise of delivering a common method used by probably 90% of ETers.

    Also, re - current position/s. I believe you are forgetting the fact that 50% of initial short has been covered, whatever happens next can either provide more return on further downside or offset the loss of remaining 50% short if entry price reached, by reducing it by 50%. By no means it is static, I have 10 short average 1345.66 and 5 long 1337.75. How is that static?

  10. OK, I thought you covered 5 of the 10 short (which would be 5 short/5 long) based on this post.

    My apologies.

    But hey, do your thing. The partial hedge is only good up to a certain "pt", at which point you're going to have to make another decision, but I'm sure you already know that.

    Regards,
