One more RED expiry...tho could have been much worse.

Another red expiry today. Been red throughout the day. Again the market range wasn't that much. Less than 500 points. But the volatility meant that stops were triggered. A lot of buy legs had losses. They got triggered just before reversals.


BANKNIFTY 



NIFTY



STOXXO




One more problem that hampered today was that THOR NIFTY couldn't take both positions because of margin issues. I took NIFTY OTMs BUY for margin (Rs 3 or below. But the filled amounts were under 1 Re). VAL NIFTY had no issues however, THOR NIFTY couldn't get both positions. There was a shortfall of Rs 1600/- May have to add some money because next week the shortfall will be over 5k After today's loss.


PNL = -2005 Charges = -150 TOTAL = -2155


THOR BNF made good money. If THOR NIFTY had run, my losses could have been much less.


This continuous DD is having an emotional impact too. These are the message I shared with the group.

Close to BT MDD. Also if today is RED day then it'll be max consecutive losses hit too. Not interfering just for the sake of discipline and following rules. Its harder than it sounds.


What makes it even harder is the doubt...Is it just DD? or is my system invalidated?


Actually, this is bit surprising for me...my main/biggest emotion at this phase of DD is not the disappointment of losing money (which there is obviously) or even frustration...but main emotion is that I feel annoyed. Never thought I would feel like that. Will add these points to my journal. Will be funny reading these few years down the line.


A good result is that HEIMDALL again did well today. However, LOKI needs work. It bleeds a lot.



Also had lots of issues with the internet today. But mobile tethering worked well. 


Also, live tested VALKYRIE V2 ALL DAY system with REX.


Excluding the profits from AB...port, the VAL REX ports gave a total of Rs2350. This could be a good candidate for LOKI going forward.

RED Expiry. No Disc Trading. Disc Algo / Legs Management. Didn't Help

 Another RED expiry. Market was sideways but with busrts of up/down moves mixed with long low volatility sideways. INDIAVIX too fell 10%, but didn't help the basket. Vix and volatility have diverged. At least with INDIAVIX and BANKNIFTY there is not much correlation left now. NF BNF STOXXO PNL: ~6400 Remarks: Did a lot of manual interventions. This has become a bad habit and I have to stop it. I think I will retire some algos or modify them to be more safer, and less risk: Heimdall, LOKI. I closed HEIMDALL in the morning after it looked like it would be a trending day. Heimdall struggles in trending days. But the market didn't trend and turned sideways. Intervened with Jane CE, Loki, Thor, ODIN T3 etc. So this manual intervention is basically ruining everything and not really preventing losses either. Fortunately didn't trade disc, else in this market, even that would have added to losses as it has in the last few days. Sometime after my exit, after 3 pm actually, there was...

Red Expiry 0.3% loss...could have been worse.

 Very volatile day. Spikes hit SLs a lot. Went into green multiple times, but still closed in RED. AT one point it looked like it'll be another 4-5-6K big loss day. But recovered. NF BNF Stoxxo NET -1600 including charges Observations: Looks like leg-based SLs are easy targets for SL hunting. Need to convert the majority of the ports to either UNDERLYING SL or combined SL. Not sure if HEIMDALL is working. It struggles with any kind of trend. Maybe it's a good idea to swap it with a NIFTY port. NIFTY was less volatile and had a slightly more pronounced trend than BNF. At one point JANE PE with PYRAMIDING was over 2K in green. And yet closed in the red after reversal. Try to add a buying scalping kind of port. Similar to the one shared on the group for FINNIFTY.
