- The first trade did way more than expected due to the volatility.  TLT moved 10 points within 24 hours of the trad being enacted. This was not normal and is not expected again.
- The second trade was cut short and hit stop. Having cash ready for this coming week is likely a good thing ;).

Stay safe and healthy out there. Reach out to someone if you can't.
