EXPLANATION:
The week kicked off with the #VolatilityIndex / #FearGauge $VIX continuing to flatten which caused my #ShortVolatilityETF $SVIX position to rally through my next sell order which trimmed XXXXX% of the position at $XXXXX on Monday.
The sale locked in +31.95% in gains on shares I bought for $XXXXX during the Tariff Tantrum on April X. The sale lowered my per-share -XXXX% from $XXXXX to $XXXXX.
Using volatility instruments like $VXX or #SVIX is never an "investment strategy" as they are trading instruments which naturally deteriorate in value over time which means micro-managing risk is key to trading discipline.
