Reboot

Welcome to my evergreen blog!

Except it is not truly evergreen.

The last post I composed was near the end of January 2018. I schedule these blogs twice weekly but I had done a good job of getting ahead.

Then Feb 2 happened.

Then Feb 5.

Then the whole next couple of months.

I lost a lot of money trading, which rattled me to the core. It was a volatility Black Swan: the largest one-day percentage increase in VIX on record since coming into existence.

By the beginning of March, I had started to dip my feet back in the water with some tweaks to my trading strategy.

Eventually after 3-4 months the excessive intraday volatility was gone and trading has continued per usual ever since. I am now ready to refocus and try to pick up on some projects—one being this blog.

Today begins a content course change. I may resume discussion of the last several posts at a future date but my current mindset is eight months displaced. I’m also a bit rusty on blog functionality so I need to get back up to speed.

In closing, I will say it’s good to be back… although from where you sit, it may appear that I never left!
