What a year this has been, had started the FY planning to generate a meagre 3% a month, but ended up generating much higher returns. Here is my performance for the FY 2024-25.
Total Profit- Rs 25,88,953
Capital Used- 40L
Returns- 64.7%
Max DD- 3.75%
Return/MDD Ratio- 17.25

Hovered around cost for most of the day despite the brutal upmove towards the end. Not too bad.

Not sure if we should be happy with today’s decay, considering premiums are already quite low for tomorrow’s expiry. Capitalised well on the decay today, though.

Was down more than 1% at one point. I genuinely don’t understand how the straddle is repeatedly refusing to price in these moves. Very strange market.

Decent day overall, could’ve done better. The upmove in the second half gave back some of the gains.

We never know when we’re going to get decay in this market, so just planning to show up each day and make the most of whatever opportunities come our way.

Off late, it feels like I’m opening the system just to take a loss. No way to trade these premiums when the market is casually moving 300–400 points each side.

Hit quite a few SLs in the morning during the IV rise, with both OTM calls and puts doubling within the first 30–40 minutes. Stayed kind of flat after that.

Directional folks would have had a field day, but there was absolutely no opportunity for non-dir trading. Happy to see VIX shoot up a bit though, it might create some opportunities.

Happy to end flat on a day that had virtually zero decay despite a 1% directional move.

Impossible to make money in this market, so frustrating. God knows what happened to those who held their positions past 3:20.

Very choppy price action in a narrow range today. 1DTE premiums were fluctuating by ±50% despite the underlying barely moving. Made it a particularly tough day to manage.

Loss days are scary, but days where premiums randomly rise with no underlying movement are even scarier. Went from +0.4% to half of that.

Not much decay through the day, ending just a little in the green. Hoping we get decent straddle premiums for tomorrow’s expiry.

Got decent decay for a Friday, much needed after a tough two weeks. Hoping there’s some change in the CAS rule going forward.

Was in the green for most of the day, but the last half-hour drama pushed MTM into the red. The straddle is still severely underpriced, hoping this gets fixed soon.

Finally some respite. Premiums were much higher today compared to the last two weeks. Hoping tomorrow’s expiry also brings some tradable premiums. Decent day overall.

Calls and puts both going 5X, with less than 25% decay in the ATM straddle till 3 PM. Absolute carnage. And the worst part? Nothing is being factored into the premiums either.

Happy to survive another tough day. That wraps up a tough month overall(slight positive). Had I stuck with my original systems in the first week, it could’ve been a decent month.

A victim of horrible price action once again, with little to no decay. Premiums moved both ways, hitting the SLs all along. Horrible phase.
