Sharing my latest 10month option trading history

sharpe ratio of -.01 means you’re losing money

Congrats on hitting the goal. One observation that might be useful: the Sharpe of -0.01 alongside positive P&L is the most interesting number in your post. It's saying you're making money but not getting paid for the volatility you're carrying. For a wheel + premium-selling strategy, that's usually a sign of position sizing variance more than strategy weakness. The data backs this up specifically. Jan '26 (+$111K) accounts for \~76% of your total $146K. Without that one month, the run is roughly $3.9K/mo across the other 9 months, below the $8K/mo goal. The Feb drawdown of -$51K against your previous peak (-71.8% peak-to-trough) gave back nearly half of January. That's not edge, that's variance. The right-skewed monthly distribution (mean $15K, median $10K) is worth thinking about too. Premium selling strategies usually have a LEFT skewed P&L because of the assignment tail: many small premium captures, occasional big losses when something goes against you. Right-skew on premium selling usually means returns are coming from price appreciation on the underlying after assignment, not consistent premium capture. Different risk profile than you might be assuming. On the 50% profit-take psychology issue, there's a clean way to quantify what it costs you. Pull your closed trades, separate them into "closed at 50% profit" vs "held longer" cohorts, compare win rate and variance contribution of each. Tasty's research says the 50% rule dramatically reduces variance with a modest hit to expected value. If your own data shows the same pattern, the discipline problem becomes a math problem you solve with a hard coded close at 50%. Not willpower, just an automation rule.

How big is your trading account and what are your primary strategies?

How is the dashboard reading your data? Is it all manual input where you actually reading from your trading account? Just curious cause I was trying to build something similar.

Removed for RULE: No journaling of trades or blogging: why & how are more important than what & when

Everyone wants to show their day-by-day or hour-by-hour trading journey, but this is not the appropriate place for such sharing. What was traded is less interesting than how and why those kinds of trades were made. Posts that are mostly just a list of gains, losses, or a list of trades, or trade images without substantial discussion of why and how, or a repeating series of posts as if you were blogging, are taken down.

Let me know when it's 20 years through multiple bear markets.

nice, the premium capture vs realized split is the part most people skip. i went down the build your own road too and honestly for plain charts tradingview already does everything, but tracking rolls was the thing that broke my spreadsheet. once a position is btc then sto a few times the cost basis and the realized vs open premium gets messy fast. i ended up using thetaedge for the options side just because it tracks the roll chain and premium capture without me hand entering everything, and kept tradingview for the actual charting. curious how you got claude to pull your fills, is it reading a broker export or are you keying them in?
