I was between good and OK for the month (depends on how much of the NURO losses are charged to the strategy).

Clear wins:

MNTA 15 puts (in both accounts)
AGIX 12.50 calls
AGIX 7.50 puts
ARNA 12.50 puts
VPHM 15 calls (in both accounts)

Mostly win:

MNTA 17.50 calls (in both accounts - bought back - looks very good now)

Sort-of-win:

NURO 15 calls

Sort-of-loss:

ARNA 15 put (looks like real loss now)

Real loss:

NURO 15 call (in two accounts)

If all of the uncovered NURO losses are counted against the trading, I still made money, but not nearly as much. The uncovered MNTA was up a little and the uncovered VPHM was flat. But then I don't count the big increase in SEPR for the month which was basically uncovered this month (plus the SEPR predates the strategy generally).
