How I LOST $1516 in May 2025 trading options
Not a good month for me.
Just couldn't seem to string together any profitable days.
Also had a whole bunch of days which were going to be profitable, but ended up losing in the last 10 minutes of the day due to big price spikes/drops.
Overall, was my worst month of the year (so far).

Basically a breakeven month for non-0DTE trades. If my commissions were less, would've made a tiny bit of money actually.
Maybe need to try and find a new broker.

Terrible month for 0DTE. Just couldn't get any winning momentum going.
Also started experimenting with 1DTE which lost me like $500.

Notes and Thoughts #
Last month was very good.
This month was very bad.
Market was up, but quite choppy, resulting in lots of stop outs and losses in last 10-15 minutes of the day.
This month I also closed nearly double the number of the positions compared to last month. I guess that shows that increasing number of trades doesn't always help.
Was also experimenting a lot with 1DTE trades, as well as longer term put broken wing butterflies / condors.
1DTE ended up being a big loser, although I only entered 6 positions, so it's still too early to tell. After backtesting more, I also realized that I was entering on the wrong day, so probably could've eliminated some of the losses.
Broken wing butterflies made a tiny bit of money. It's sort of complicated strategy, that I don't fully comprehend, so not sure if I will keep trading it. I guess until it starts losing money.
