Quick 33% gain on VIX

In: Past Performance

I decided to take advantage of the VIX spike today to offload my VIX 17 futures and free-up cash to invest in other opportunities due to options expiration.
I have been buying May 17 VIX calls. With a very small spike today, my VIX returned a nice 33% profit for 1-2 day holding period.

OPN Performance

This assumes a $10,000 starting and fully invested capital. The current phase started when OPNewsletter was re-opened in Jan'08 for Feb'08 expiration. OPN Month is counted as 3rd Friday of each month same as US Equity option expiration day. Comparison with S&P500 or Dow is not shown as it's unfair to expect from such large institution to deliver high returns. I would rather compare with my own target.

The Phase-1 assumes from May 2007 till Jan 2008 and starting fully invested capital of $10,000.
