  7. Hi i'm Carey i'm going to start posting here... i have a few accounts... this is full disclosure.. i'm trading a friends account that started out at 10k.. now its at 9,150... made a mistake trading in Vixy vix ETF's had a draw down.... thought i could make money on a pop.. held and bled..
    so i started out a new tos account with 5k i'm at 4,650 put a butterfly on with wings that were two short and exposed myself to to much gamma risk close to expiration and didn't close out the position when i knew i should..
    opened a sub account in my IB account to get around Pattern day trading restriction.. main account now 1800 , sub account 10 k....

    as of right now i'm in a few aapl flys.. and a 675 striked sept/oct calender.. things are going well.. .

    i opened and closed a 20 wide strike yesterday closed today .. opened at 4.85 sold at 5.20 i'm going to start utilizing more of my capital.. i've been basically trading 10 percent at most of my capital.... .
