Booking profits early will definitely skip you out on max profit days, BUT it will also save you from days which goes from average profit achieved to max/avg loss of your strategy.
When you go from +X to -X, you donβt lose X, you lose 2X.

@SumanMund6 Re Evaluate whats wrong with the strategies. Observe during market hours. A single strategy can be in drawdown but whole portfolio not able to sustain market again and again is a sign of problem.
@aakankshalovely Exit matters in this kind of market. Market is supposed to give some profits and then take away all. I had several instances profit wiping out, so these days I am booking when its near average profit / day.
Looking at these cheap premiums and sideways market for almost 2 hours, I decided to close all strategies at 11:30AM Today, as I didnβt want to be slaughtered by gamma moves. I think the decision worked out quite well.
STBT: +12k π
0DTE: +25k π
From +32k to this. 2 of my manual trade had me losses. I was trying to short PE at 24000 but market didnt survive.
0DTE: 8.5k π’
STBT: 8k π’
Manual: -11.5k π΄
Net: 5k π
No position carrying overnight.
@dhirajsinha Not necessarily. Making something more complex doesnβt mean it will work. Algos are also all about market observations and it has to be simple.
Choppy session Today. Look at the premiums vs the swings market is making. With such cheap premiums, itβs hard to protect your stops.
Carrying 24100PE overnight. Max loss defined.
