Actually I have a :( $18,925 paper loss today because I was too much the eager beaver to buy my puts on the gap up open.
Today I'm down -15.8% on open May SPY puts (137, 136, 135), a 1,000 contract position. This is such a large % of my money, I am very, very afraid.

You shouldn't ask me because I've lost a lot of money year to date. I'm not a professional trader. Call me a wanna-be.
Lost 5% of account in past 50 minutes, but it's a "long term" trade.
Long a shitload of May SPY puts: 135, 136, 137.
I wouldn't call going to a strip club a high risk activity, unless you're referring to your wife finding out, or the guys who give all their money...
