I trade spxs weekly. I usually shift what contracts (and which way they go) at least once a week. Try to be out by the morning on Fridays. Think I’m on 7 weeks strait of profitability. I expect 40%-100% returns usually, but on the big fed days it’s been turning into 200%-400%. Very small account. Just trying to catch the trend changes and riding the waves. Almost no actual day trades. I pick the moves the day before and shift on the fly.
