Analysis & Observations
#

Portfolio Performance
#

This was a difficult week for the portfolio, with the combined value declining by $11,274 (3.93%). The main drivers of loss were:

  1. Equity Unrealized Losses Widened: Total unrealized P&L on IBKR worsened from -$15,450 to -$23,440, an additional $7,990 in unrealized losses. The largest contributors:

    • UBER: -$755 additional loss (now -$4,054)
    • RACE: -$1,725 additional loss (reversed from +$1,840 profit last week)
    • TWLO: -$180 additional loss (now -$6,490)
    • ZEVY options: -$6,316 (now worthless, expired)
  2. Binance Modest Recovery: While ETH’s market value dropped $6,876 due to price decline, today’s session showed +$1,520 (+1.87%) gain as crypto markets stabilized.

  3. Option Positions Zeroed Out: All speculative options (ZEVY, CBRL, DKNG, RPD) are now at or near zero, representing $9,492 in losses on these positions.

Key Takeaways
#

  • The short call positions on RACE and UBER (expiring Nov 21) generated +$2,232 in realized profits this week - the only bright spot.
  • The core equity holdings (UBER, TWLO, RACE) continue to underperform with combined losses of $11,429.
  • Binance ETH position represents 39% of the portfolio and remains the largest single exposure. The weekly loss of 7.67% on ETH impacted overall performance significantly.
  • Cash position deteriorated: IBKR now has -$11.8K total cash (negative EUR balance + negative USD), suggesting margin usage or recent settlements.

Strategy Considerations
#

  • Consider reducing exposure to the worst-performing equity positions (TWLO at -60.6%, ZEVY at -100%)
  • The speculative options strategy has not worked; consider focusing on core holdings
  • ETH position remains substantial; monitor for further volatility in crypto markets
